Screen rotation control in v1.4

I have nearly finished an app in v.14 for android . It has several full screen images which are mostly in landscape. Can I stop the phone from rotating image, as when I to view it by holding the phone in landscape it rotates to portrait. I know some phones via settings can control rotation. Can I do this in the app as its aimed at children and stroppy teenagers.

Hi Marko. There are few different ways to do this. All the ways will require a source-code adjustment. buzztouch v1.5 is available for iOS but not Android yet. It allows these types of adjustments in the contol panel. Because you are using buzztouch v1.4 you'll need to tweak a few things in your project after downloading your source-code.

Thanks for the info David I will look into this straight away. I am starting my first v1.5 app next week and happy to give you the feedback of the transition and usabilitiy from a very basic coder if it helps. What I like about buzztouch so far is that at a basic skill level you can do a functioning app, and as you develop you can get under the hood (I thought i would use USA term (bonnet UK term) and get code dirty if you want.
