    {
        hub_page_index = panorama.SelectedIndex;
    }
    else if (pivot.Visibility == Visibility.Visible)
    {
        hub_page_index = pivot.SelectedIndex;
    }

    if (e.Orientation == PageOrientation.Landscape
     || e.Orientation == PageOrientation.LandscapeLeft
     || e.Orientation == PageOrientation.LandscapeRight)
    {
    // Display Pivot in Landscape orientation
        pivot.SetValue(Pivot.SelectedItemProperty, pivot.Items[panorama.SelectedIndex]);
        panorama.Visibility = Visibility.Collapsed;
        pivot.Visibility = Visibility.Visible;
    }
    else
    {
        // Display Panorama in Portrait orientation
        panorama.SetValue(Panorama.SelectedItemProperty, panorama.Items[pivot.SelectedIndex]);
        pivot.Visibility = Visibility.Collapsed;
        panorama.Visibility = Visibility.Visible;
    }
}
