Hi, I followed a previous guide on preventing an app from rotating when the iPhone is tilted. It worked to begin with, but since I have re-run my App from Xcode, my background became out of alignment and my screen rotates even when I have changed the settings... The code is as follows... @implementation BT_rotatingTabBarController ******* ROTATING TAB BAR CONTROLLER ****** //init -(id)init{ if (self = [super init]) { //[BT_debugger showIt:self:[NSString stringWithFormat:@INIT%@, @]]; } return self; } //should rotate -(BOOL)shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)interfaceOrientation { //[BT_debugger showIt:self:[NSString stringWithFormat:@shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation %@, @]]; //ALWAYS ALLOWING ROTATIONS BOOL canRotate = 0; //can it rotate? if(canRotate == 0){ //[BT_debugger showIt:self:[NSString stringWithFormat:@can rotate: YES, @]]; return YES; }else{ //[BT_debugger showIt:self:[NSString stringWithFormat:@can rotate: NO, @]]; return (interfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationPortrait); } //we should not get here return YES; ****** ROTATING NAV CONTROLLER *******

*/ //ALWAYS ALLOWING ROTATIONS BOOL canRotate = 0; //can it rotate? if(canRotate == 0){ //[BT_debugger showIt:self:[NSString stringWithFormat:@can rotate: NO, @]]; return YES; }else{ //[BT_debugger showIt:self:[NSString stringWithFormat:@can rotate: YES, @]]; return (interfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationPortrait); } //we should not get here return YES;

Any idea where I might be going wrong? Many thanks. P.S Ive tested this both on Simulator and Device, both still orientate to Landscape when I am looking for a fixed Portrait view.

should be... if(canRotate == 1) keep ... BOOL canRotate = 0 Do same with navcontroller I think this will work. Same thing happened to me.

You are an absolute diamond thank you! :) Weird how it worked before with the above code, then reverted back to orientating. I'll never understand Xcode. But thank you for the help.

We'll have a 'Allow Rotation' setting in the Core settings area of v1.5 apps eventually. @icedbreeze: You probably didn't do anything wrong. Little gotcha's like this creep in sometimes when we upload the project on the download server. It's possible that you re-downloaded something? The idea is that as our Early Adopter audience tweeks, discovers, fixes, complains.... we try to listen and get these things on the control panel. It's important that you can re-download your project over and over again without having to make your custom mods - this is one of them (rotation settings) for now.
