Reporting incorrect bounds in landscape Mode

Question

I am having an issue with Landscape mode in my iPad application.

I created a very small new project to show my issue I set UIInterfaceOrientation in the pList to UII

Answer 1

Apart from viewDidAppear: make sure using _window.rootViewController instead of [_window addSubview:_rootViewController.view]. That also solved my issues on iOS6.

AppDelegate.m:

- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions {    
  _window = [[UIWindow alloc] initWithFrame:[UIScreen mainScreen].bounds];
  _rootViewController = [[MyRootViewController alloc] init];
  _window.rootViewController = _rootViewController;
  [_window makeKeyAndVisible];
  return YES;
}

MyRootViewController.m:

- (void)viewDidAppear:(BOOL)animated {
  [super viewDidAppear:animated];
  NSLog(@"bounds: %@", NSStringFromCGRect(self.view.bounds));
  UIView *myView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:self.view.bounds];
  [self.view addSubview:myView];
}
