Hello, I have implemented the XIB menu plugin (awesome) into my project. I have applied two different backgrounds - 1 in the ipad portrait view, 1 in the ipad landscape view. If I open the ipad in portrait the correct view displays. If i open the ipad in landscape the correct view displays. However - Once the screen has loaded if I change orientation from portrait to landscape or landscape to portrait the view does not change. It does not seem to change dynamically once the app is in use Any help will be greatly appreciated. Christine

Well.... I dunno, I don't have that plugin, lol! Mutzy would be the one to ask, but in the interim... Check and see if the plugin has a 'layoutScreen' method. This detects when the device changes orientation after the plugin has loaded. it should look something like this: -(void) layoutScreen { if(UIDeviceOrientationIsPortrait) { do something to correct the orientation } else { // else it's landscape do something to correct the orientation } } if the method exists, you might want to add some code to reload the portrait or landscape view. If it's not there, then you may want to add it. Hope this helps! Cheers! -- Smug

Hey, check out this thread. https://www.buzztouch.com/forum/thread.php?tid=594191EA32F0633E2079FB8 Cheers. Miguel

@madrod. Thanks - I have implemented the suggestions on that thread, but I'm having a slightly different issue. @SumgWimp Thanks - there isn't a 'layoutScreen' method so I'll dig deeper. Thanks for the pointer. Chris

Chris- SORRY FOR THE DELAY!!! I just finished 6 straight 12 hour overnight shifts in the ER and have been a zombie all week. Now, you're saying it loads in the correct orientation but then doesn't switch views when you rotate between landscape and portrait? That's odd. You're the first person to report a problem like this. Okay, lets try some things. 1. It looks as if you implemented the change that Kittsy suggested in the below link, yes? Were you having the problem before you made that change? If so move on... https://www.buzztouch.com/forum/thread.php?fid=1395920398779DB4B755A76&tid=1395920398779DB4B755A76 2. The code that helps the screen rotate in the jm_Xib_button_menu.m file is near the very end and looks like the following: -(void) willRotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)toInterfaceOrientation duration:(NSTimeInterval)duration{ [BT_debugger showIt:self theMessage:@"willRotateToInterfaceOrientation"]; if(UIInterfaceOrientationIsLandscape(toInterfaceOrientation)){ self.view = iPadLandscape; }else{ self.view = iPadPortrait; } } Is that what it looks like your in file too? If not that could be the problem. 3. In Xcode when you when you click on your app's target and go to summary, then scroll down to the iPad deployment info section... do you have all interface orientations selected? If not, select them all. 4. Lastly, in your appDelegate.m file, scroll to the very bottom until you see the following: //UNCOMMENT THIS TO SUPPORT iOS 6 SCREEN ROTATAIONS mask |= UIInterfaceOrientationMaskPortrait; if(canRotate){ mask |= UIInterfaceOrientationMaskLandscapeLeft; mask |= UIInterfaceOrientationMaskLandscapeRight; mask |= UIInterfaceOrientationMaskPortraitUpsideDown; } return mask; Make sure you have the "//" in front of "uncomment" to allow rotations to work. ANY LUCK?? Josh

Hi Josh, Thanks for getting back to me. I had put this down for a few days in frustration and my buzztouch email notifications aren't working. Everything looks as it should. I have the mask code, although it doesn't show "//UNCOMMENT THIS TO SUPPORT iOS 6 SCREEN ROTATAIONS" before hand. So perhaps it's been updated by default? I have implemented the code from Kitsy into the jm_Xib_button_menu.m file as specified. I am wondering if it's a version thing? I am running Xcode 4.6.2, IOS SDK 6.1 I created a test app with nothing else in it, but the xib menu and the same thing happens. Have you tried it recently? Is it possible that there has been an update that has screwed things up a bit? I'm at a complete loss. Thanks for your help. Chris PS - has anyone ever told you that you work too hard!

I have Xcode 4.6 and iOS SDK 6.1. I will play around with it in a new app when I get some time off. In the meantime try adding the //UNCOMMENT THIS TO SUPPORT iOS 6 SCREEN ROTATAIONS before that section to see if it changes anything. Josh

Hey, I'm having the same problem? Any more suggestions? Thanks Miguel

Hey, so THE MAN, Kittsy, solved me this problem as well. BT_tabBarController.m comment out lines 112 to 138 It works great. Thanks Cheers Miguel
