Force landscape mode with WebWorks

To force a mode application landscape, the following should be added to in your *-app.xml file:

fake

landscape

If I create one *-app.xml for my WebWorks project, however, it is ignored by the compiler. So far, I've been open my .bar file after compilation, extract the *-app.xml the compiler creates, edit and update the archive, but I suspect that this will not be an option when the time comes to sign my applications.

What other options do I have?

Hello world

We have actually had discussions about this feature today... We look at a few solutions that would be built into the software.

For the moment, you can try the following... (I have not tested it yet)

If you go into the "bbwp\AirAppTemplates\src" directory where you installed the WebWorks for PlayBook SDK you'll find a file called WebWorksAppTemplate - App.xml

I think it's the file use us as a model and then replace specific fields with the information from your config.xml file.

Try to make changes to this file, and they can stick to you.  Also note that the changes here will affect all of the apps you build with the SDK.

  • Force Landscape Mode

    In section Q and r of the last Conference, it was mentioned that it was possible to force an application in landscape or portrait. However, I missed the details on the way and hoped that someone had the details to do this...

    Hey ebscer,.

    to lock the orientation you have to modify/add details to your -app.xml file descriptor. Open the file and search tags. Add the following lines somewhere between these two tags (mine are just before the closing tag):

    false
    landscape
    

    that should do the job! Good luck!

  • Slide on the stroller in landscape mode when the "home" button is on the right

    I tried to cross the split screen/slide to work on my iPad Pro, and it drives me crazy!

    I can not work properly when I use the Smart keyboard and iPad is oriented mode landscape with button at home on the right side. No matter how hard I try, I can't tab to display by dragging my finger from right to left. I have to be to tilt the iPad to portrait or landscape mode with button at the House on the left, and then shared screen reverse the iPad back so that I can use the keyboard.

    Every once in a while I'll manage to get the tab appears, but it is extremely rare.

    If someone has experienced this problem and, if so, have you solved?

    Thank you!

    Hello idiot3qu3,

    Comparable to that you are facing questions are a few bugs that a number of people may or may not be one on their iPads. It should be smoothed in a future iOS firmware update. Until then, you just have to work in another direction, or simply use the button home, turned to the left landscape.

    Hope this helped,

  • Xoom buttons does not work in landscape mode

    Okay, so I already got basic measures to reboot, hard Boot (hold down the Volume Up and Reboot at the same time) and do a reset to the factory settings to try to resolve this issue, always have. Here it is:

    Recently without apparent reason, and when I'm in landscape mode, I can't interact with the "home" button, the "back" button, the Manager tasks and wake up. It doesn't matter what app I am or if I'm on the regular homescreen, they indicate simply that I'm in contact with them. The buttons are there, but it's as if there is simply no response from the user interface. IT IS ONLY IN LANDSCAPE MODE. Everything works well in portrait mode.

    I spoke with an agent who told me that I had to send it in for repair or replacement. It would cost me $150,00 to do. Tablet is not even really worth even more.

    It started to happen shortly after that I bought and started using a docking OEM with the Xoom.

    All your guys help would be greatly appreciated. This tablet is my only option to watch movies and netflix now. ; no TV. No one being not able to landscape mode and a few apps that I just can't leave if they force the landscape mode.

  • iPhone 6 & Landscape Mode

    Aloha,

    No matter what I do, I can't get my iPhone 6 for work in landscape mode. For example, I opened a video in normal mode, and then switch to full screen and then try to turn the phone to display in the landscape, but the iPhone 6 do not return full landscape mode. I have the same thing to the text, or whatever it is.

    I forced a re-startup of the phone. What can I do?

    Maybe I'll be forced to restore the factory settings, but then I have to re install all the applications, which would be a pain.

    Mahalo,

  • Displays the text of Cat Endangered in Landscape Mode

    I use a German HTC 7 Pro Windows Phone 7.10.8107.79 running and the text of conversations disappears completely when trying to enter text in Landscape Mode.

    This happens in the following circumstances:

    Click on a Skype contact

    Hold the phone sideways to switch to Mode landscape

    Slide the physical keyboard to enter text

    automatically any text of the conversation that happened so far will disappear, any new text added to the conversation by you or your conversation partner is not displayed either. The text in the chat box you enter gets displayed (up to it send it to you).

    The bug does not occur in the following circumstances:

    Click on a Skype contact

    Hold the phone sideways to switch to Mode landscape

    Do not drag on the physical keyboard, commit the software keyboard instead by clicking on the chat box

    Once the software keyboard gets displayed, drag the physical keyboard

    When this replica, the conversation always appears (as opposed to the "natural method" to simply drag the physical keyboard).

  • Photos rotate from Portrait to landscape mode when em

    I discovered that all the photos I take orientation portrait once sent to someone, they are reversed for the landscape. The photos cannot be turned to the correct orientation with opening program Paint and rotate manually. Is there any solution for this?

    I take hundreds and thousands of photos of my life (children, holidays etc.) and will not have to handle them later once moved on my computer.

    Note: If you reduce the image quality at 6mp it solves the problem, too, if you shoot the pic in HDR mode. I wouldn't have to do to make it work. IN CASE OF FAILURE.

    Please tell me that there is a fix for this.

    I want to give up a follow up on this situation. I just Jelly Bean and it solved my problem of camera. He keeps standard taken in 8mp photos in portrait in portrait orientation. It does not turn them in landscape mode if I wanted to, but that's ok with me.

  • No access to Windows Update in Windows Vista safe mode with network

    Since yesterday every time I connect normally to Windows Vista, the programs stop responding at random and nothing works Manager tasks even not so I am forced to close it manually, the only way that I normally use my computer is in safe mode

    I googled and someone who has had a similar problem to mine all downloaded updates critical to windows update and that seems to fix the problem

    My question is how can I access Windows Update in Safe Mode with network, because when I click on start - Windows Update, nothing happens and I cannot use windows install either.

    Thank you

    Hi Renee,.

    Please use the Community Forums for Vista.

    Probably not the cause, but enabling it does update race and there is probably a problem there.

    Well, let's see. If all your restore points are gone, it's bad. Often, it is a virus.

    Here's what we need. Error codes, messages, etc.

    If no pop up, go into the event viewer (just type in the search bar) and look in the logs of Windows, Applications, and system folders. Please only after the event. We just need the event id and the application causing him.

    Here's what you can do in the meantime.

    Run the checker system files and chkdsk.

    Get back to us with error messages and follow the directions below.

    Follow these steps.

    Type cmd into the search bar and press to enter.

    The chkdsk command line type, then press on enter.

    If it finds errors, type chkdsk /f to repair.

    Once that is complete, insert your windows installation disc in the drive and return to the command prompt. Type sfc/scannow, and then enter.

    Help! My Torch 9850 is stuck in portrait mode. He's not in landscape mode when I turn it. It was working fine yesterday.

    Perform a simple reboot on the BlackBerry this way: with smart BlackBerry poweredphone, remove the battery for a minute and then reinsert the battery to restart. A reboot in this manner is prescribed for most defects and errors of operating system, and you will lose any data on the device doing so.

  • Landscape mode for Dell WMO on the shelves?

    Howdy,

    There are chances that Dell WMO in a next version may support the rotation of the screen based on landscape mode?

    I use currently an iPad with Bluetooth Ko to landscape, which is unfortunate because the app of the WMO is locked in landscape mode.

    See you soon!

    Hi BC,.

    Thanks for your comments.  You are right that screens landscape mode is not supported in the version of iOS WMO. It is one of the highest priority for the next release efforts. Thanks for your patience on this - we had to draw the line of iOS of WMO, only some of the pages as you need a minor GUI redesign to be taken supported in landscape mode, and we chose to postpone that effort for a later version. We are currently working on a roadmap for the next release.

    Your comments are valuable to us - if you have any further questions, concerns or suggestions or improvements, send them along. You could even email [email protected].

  • VIMEO WIDGET DOES NOT WORK WHEN DISPLAYING VIDEO IN LANDSCAPE MODE WHICH JUMPS TO THE NEXT BREAKPOINT.

    Hello I had a lot of problems to make Vimeo to work with Responsories between my fluid breakpoints - I have defined it 360, 768, 1024 and 1020 breakpoints. What is happening is when using built in widget Vimeo muse and adjust the widget between breakpoints and then download the site, the widget allows to be played when the phone is held in normal use portrait video. When I'm on my iPhone 6 more, for example, the site load very well with the breakpoint 414. The fines of the video is played. However, then I tilt the phone in landscape mode, the video stops and breaks site for the next breakpoint. I managed to get one or two videos work very well on my site, but others have the same problem above.

    On the page below the first video works very well--you can tilt the phone in landscape mode and it continues to play as usual - on the other two videos - it doesn't - the video stops / site goes to the next breakpoint 768.

    http://www.dubaicorereviewapp.com/guests.html

    What I can not understand, that is why the first video work and not the other two. I tried to create pages with scaled down the content to see if I can get the video to work right and it doesn't. This used to be an issue with Muse before the new version of reagent. Because my site has lots of one type of the members of videos I need to find a way to deal with this issue? all suggestions/guidelines would be appreciated. I did the widget extend to the width of the browser in each of the stitches if that helps.


    WORKS WITH THIS VIDEO

    BUT NOT WITH THIS


    Screen Shot 2016-03-30 at 11.22.57.png



    UPDATE!


    OK made some progress on this issue - but its not the solution I want - I think that what is happening is when you use the widget to say about 1200 downtime and scale down to each of the lower stop points - you this question - BUT if you copy the widget into the offending breakpoint and hide the original widget and then paste the widget of the memory - so it works very well in this breakpoint - I suspect that there is a bug with the widget / Muse because it works when the SAME scale inserted widget between breakpoints and will work if you paste a widget FRESH in the offending breakpoint - this should be fixed!

    Hi cheeky71,

    This is certainly a bug with Muse and we hope that it be corrected in a future release. I'm glad to hear that you have found a workaround for now.

  • layout does not properly when the phone is in landscape mode

    Hello everyone,

    I created a Web page with 3 different configurations: desktop, Tablet and phone. Each presentation has several breakpoints. For example, the available phone has 2 breakpoints, at 375 px and 667 px.

    I've published on businesscatalyst. When I open the page with my iPhone portrait 6 mode, it works fine, but when I turn my phone horizontally, in landscape mode, everything is misplaced. The layout of phone 667 px does not appear.

    Any ideas why this is and how to fix it?

    Is it necessary to make 3 different models, for each device, or can I just do a desktop with several breakpoints layout, corresponding to the fixed and mobile devices? If I do this, my page will be considered by Google 'sensitive '?

    Thank you all,.
