I like allowing users to be able to rotate the screen on my app, but I could make certain pages and menus look a lot more professional if I deny rotation on certain screens. I know how to allow/deny rotation, but not per page. Is there a way to allow some pages to only remain in portrait and others to go both portrait and landscape?

Android, you can put: setRequestedOrientation (ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT); (or LANDSCAPE) in the onCreate of the classes you want to control. You'll need to hover over the ActivityInfo to add the import. Comments Android or iOS?

We members shouldn't be editing the "m" files... as making a change for one context, could blow up a lot of others!..
