Supporting locking landscape orientation

It's really convinent to lock the landscape orientation when reading. So will the future version of reader support it ?

The only thing, what is necessary, is to NOT support iPhone upside down orientation. I can't imagine a case when somebody needs to read PDF and hold iPhone in upside down position.
If upside down orientation is not supported and you turn iPhone to this position (e.g. when uou read in bed), the screen remains in landscape orientation and that is the desired efect. None Apple application support upside down orientation. See for example apps: iBooks, Safari, Messages, Email, Notes, Calendar, Music, ...

Can't get Lollipop lock screen to show analogue clock when in landscape orientation

I use a magnetic dock to charge my Z3C at night, at which time it doubles as my bedside clock. Unfortunately, while I prefer the analogue clock, the lock screen switches to digital as soon as the handset display is rotated to the landscape orientation.
In portrait, even with the magnetic dock attached, I can choose the analogue clock either through the settings or by using a long tap on the digital clock and swiping to analogue.
In landscape mode, which is only available when attached to the dock, the analogue display reverts to digital. A long tap on the clock does not seem to have any effect.
Is anybody else experiencing this? Any solutions? I've tried a few DayDream apps, but I'd rather get the native lock screen working, because it's better in other ways.

@Briaetta
I was able to recreate the issue, contact Sony directly

Landscape orientation locked

Somehow I must have locked my Mail app in landscape orientation on my new iPhone 4. How do I unlock it so that Mail shows up in portrait mode instead of landscape?

I had the same problem with my iphone 5s with latest ios 7. i tried everything including restarting several times, but nothing worked, all apps immediately went landscape mode unless i had phone locked in portrait mode. I finally decided that the accelerometer was physically broken. I went to the compass app to test the accelerometer and at first it didn't work right. then I went to the "level" app which is part of the compass and starting turning my phone over and over and eventually the accelerometer recalibrated itself and everything works fine now. So try that.

How do you lock/unlock orientation of display. Portrait to landscape?

Phone is"stuck" in portrait mode and will not switch to landscape when tilted. Have I inadvertently locked it?
Youtube works plays in landscape, but normal operation of tilt is gone. Any clues?

You may have orientation lock on. Is the icon denoting orientation lock present?
This is covered in the manual:
Shows that the iPhone screen is locked in portrait orientation. See “Viewing in Portrait or Landscape Orientation” on page 32.

I have managed to lock the landscape orientation on my iphone 3 - any ideas as to how I unlock it please?

Im not aware that you can lock your screen in landscape so I'm assuming you have locked it in portrait and want to allow it to ne seen landscape, therefore double click the Home button, swipe the icons to the right, you will see an icon with a circle-arrow. That is your screen orientation lock.
Assuming again you have iOS5 have a look at the following for more help, page 21

Locking book orientation to landscape or portrait?

I read a review that said that you could lock the orientation to portrait. My experience is that you can lock to LANDSCAPE but not portrait. There's a checkbox in one of the menus for this.
But for portrait?
And, it the portrait mode always going to do the scroll-to-end display rather than a page display? If so, portrait seems kind of useless for a book publication program.

With the introduction of iPhoto 9 (11) there's no Page Setup anymore for iPhoto. That's handled by iPhoto in the Print window by the layout and print size you've selected. We'll assume you're using Yosemite and iPhoto 9.6
We need to know more details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
what do you see in iPhoto's Print window?
has it ever worked with iPhoto 6.
how are the photos oriented when viewed in an Event or album?
what fixes have you tried?
where is your library located?
did you apply any updates or upgrades just prior to the problem occurring?
are you running a "managed" or "referenced" library?
what type of Mac?
how much free space on your boot drive?

Lock the app in Landscape orientation

My ipod is not going in to landscape orientation

I got new ipod touch 4gen 5.1.1, but its not going in to landscape orientation, even portarait orientation is unlocked from multitask bar, nothing is helping me out, help help help please...

What app are you trying to use in landscape mode? Not all apps rotate.
If the lock in not on and the screen does not rotate in an app that supports rotation
Try the following:
- A reset. Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
If you still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order

After updating to iOS 8.0.2 in my iPhone 5S, why does automatic landscape orientation doesn't work?

I recently updated to iOS 8.0.2 in my iPhone 5S. Since that update, landscape orientation doesn't work for any application. I have ensured that the Portrait Orientation lock is Off.

I have a workaround, if you lock then unlock the orientation lock it seems to work again.

Landscape orientation = portrait orientation?

I'd like my landscape and portrait orientations to look the exact same. I want the user to simply switch to landscape mode if she or he wants the book to be bigger. This is proving harder then it should be. Any help is well appreciated.

I was under the impression that "locking" keeps the user from entering landscape orientation (if locked in portrait mode).
How can I make sure the user may switch between? Is there a template that does this?
Thanks - just trying to get as much specifics before I start testing.

Locking The Orientation Of The Flex Mobile Application on Android Device

Hi all,
I have developed an application using Adobe Flash Builder Burrito and installed it on my android device,Samsung Galaxy Tab.
I want to lock the orientation of my application to landscape even when the device is in portrait position.
Can anyone of you help me to implement this.
Thanks.
Sujata Jha.

When you create a new mobile project (actionscript or flex) it asks if you want it to auto-orient. This setting can be edited for existing projects in [project name]-app.xml.
What I can't figure out is how to fix the application in landscape mode, as it seems to default to portrait.I could rotate the content myself, but the I'd have to convert screen events and previewing on the desktop would mean a lot of head twisting. Anyone know how to do this?
