When using the lockorientation to portrait in xamarin forms even then the screen is rotating to the landscape mode.

wcoder commented 6 years ago

Could you please clarify for Android / iOS / UWP?

gmwilhelm commented 6 years ago

I see this too, on iOS

wcoder commented 6 years ago

Do you use the code for iOS Specific Support? https://github.com/wcoder/Xamarin.Plugin.DeviceOrientation#ios-specific-support

gmwilhelm commented 6 years ago

I don't have a ViewController in Xamarin.Forms on iOS.

I'm trying like this in my code-behind of my xaml page:

 public partial class MyLockedPage : ContentPage
    {
        public MyLockedPage ()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
            CrossDeviceOrientation.Current.LockOrientation(Plugin.DeviceOrientation.Abstractions.DeviceOrientations.Portrait);
        }
    }

Ok, I will check and report results in the near time.

@arjun159, @gmwilhelm please check version 1.0.5.

For Xamarin.Forms iOS look at this: https://github.com/wcoder/Xamarin.Plugin.DeviceOrientation#xamarinforms-ios

Thanks, works for me

For me on iOS I had to manually edit the Info.plist as the Manifest editor was not updating it correctly See below for locking iphone and ipad to portrait

<key>UISupportedInterfaceOrientations</key>
<array>
    <string>UIInterfaceOrientationPortrait</string>
</array>
<key>UISupportedInterfaceOrientations~ipad</key>
<array>
    <string>UIInterfaceOrientationPortrait</string>
    <string>UIInterfaceOrientationPortraitUpsideDown</string>
</array>
