UINavigation controller doesn't open in landscape mode

I am loading a UIViewController the following way:

-(void)logIn
{
    NewSignInView *viewController = [[[NewSignInView alloc] init] autorelease];

    UINavigationController *navController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:viewController];
    [self presentModalViewController:navController animated:YES];
    [navController release];

    [UIView animateWithDuration:0.3
                          delay:0
                        options:UIViewAnimationCurveEaseOut
                     animations:^{ self.view.alpha = 0; }
                     completion:^(BOOL finished){ }];
}

NewSignView is a UIViewController that creates a UITableView to get the input from the user. When I load it using a UINavigationController it refuses to open in Landscape mode. But if I load it directly to CCDirector the following way it opens properly in landscape.

[[[CCDirector sharedDirector] openGLView] addSubview:viewController.view];

I use the following inside NewSignInView:

- (BOOL)shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)interfaceOrientation
{
    // Return YES for supported orientations
    return (interfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeRight);
}

So something is preventing the UINavigationController from opening up in landscape mode. Can anyone help me in any way on trying to figure out what is causing the problem?

Thanks

try following in your shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation: method:

return UIInterfaceOrientationIsLandscape(interfaceOrientation);

So your Controller supports both rotations, not only LandscapeRight. Make sure the ViewController with the logIn-Method returns YES in shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation.

Hope this helps. Besides i would make one suggestion: Don't name your ViewController NewSignInView with out Controller to avoid confusion. If it was only a quick and diry example - never mind.
