Hi There, I have searched the forum for a final answer on how to set an app to only show portrait view. How do I keep my app to only show landscape mode? It is an app used on on iPads... Sorry if I missed a complete answer in the forum. (This app is not for itunes review so not worried about their guidelines). Thanks in advance...

This first line tells the app on what orientation it should load, mask \|= UIInterfaceOrientationMaskPortrait If you want the app to launch in landscape you have to change it to mask \|= UIInterfaceOrientationMaskLandscapeRight; or to mask \|= UIInterfaceOrientationMaskPortraitUpsideDown; Plus this, I think you have to change TRUE to FALSE in the code just above this, where it reads, canRotate.
