So, if you app supports all interface orientations and in one of your view controllers you need to support only the portrait mode, add the following method to your controller implementation file:
- (NSUInteger)supportedInterfaceOrientations
{
return UIInterfaceOrientationMaskPortrait | UIInterfaceOrientationMaskPortraitUpsideDown;
}
In case you have a navigation controller and your portrait view controller is added to this navigation controller, you need to subclass UINavigationController and add this method to the implementation of this subclass:
- (NSUInteger)supportedInterfaceOrientations
{
return [[self topViewController] supportedInterfaceOrientations];
}
So if the header file looks so:
#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
@interface MyNavigationController : UINavigationController
@end
in the MyNavigationController.m file I have:
#import "MyNavigationController.h"
@interface MyNavigationController ()
@end
@implementation MyNavigationController
- (id)initWithNibName:(NSString *)nibNameOrNil bundle:(NSBundle *)nibBundleOrNil
{
self = [super initWithNibName:nibNameOrNil bundle:nibBundleOrNil];
if (self) {
// Custom initialization
}
return self;
}
- (void)viewDidLoad
{
[super viewDidLoad];
// Do any additional setup after loading the view.
}
- (void)didReceiveMemoryWarning
{
[super didReceiveMemoryWarning];
// Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.
}
- (NSUInteger)supportedInterfaceOrientations
{
return [[self topViewController] supportedInterfaceOrientations];
}
@end
Same idea fits for the UITabBarController - make your own class derived from UITabBarController with only one method:
- (NSUInteger)supportedInterfaceOrientations
{
return [[self selectedViewController] supportedInterfaceOrientations];
}
Use this new class in your app instead of the standard UITabBarController.
This is the way I found. You can propose your solution and I will be glad to test it. Maybe this link will help you to solve the problem:
