This has been asked a dozen times on this site, but I haven't found an answer that works for me. I have an iPad application with a UISplitViewController on the root level that is created programmatically. Inside the view that is being displayed in the right hand pane, triggered by user interaction, a UINavigationController is programmatically created and presented to the user. Here is that code:
listenerController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:listenerView];
[listenerController.navigationBar setTintColor:[UIColor colorWithRed:185.0f/255.0f green:80.0f/255.0f blue:0.0f/255.0f alpha:1.0f]];
if (UI_USER_INTERFACE_IDIOM() == UIUserInterfaceIdiomPad) {
[listenerController setModalPresentationStyle:UIModalPresentationFormSheet];
[listenerController setModalTransitionStyle:UIModalTransitionStyleCrossDissolve];
[listenerController setModalInPopover:YES];
}
[self presentModalViewController:listenerController animated:YES];
[listenerController release];
This does create the view controller properly, but when it is displayed the iPad is forced back into portrait view regardless of what orientation I have the iPad in. Then when I dismiss the modal window, it will rotate back.
I already have shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation in the viewcontroller of the righthand pane set to YES, and I even tried adding this to the main app delegate class without any luck. It doesn't seem like I should have to subclass UINavigationController just to override the shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation method.
Am I calling presentModalViewController from the wrong object? I've tried [self presentModalViewController ...] as well as [self.parentViewController presentModalViewController ...] with the same results.

I'm assuming that the self
in your code example is the right-view (detail) view controller. You need to call presentModalViewController
from the root UISplitViewController
.
