How to detect orientation change in layout in Android?

Question

I just implemented a orientation change feature - e.g. when the layout changes from portrait to landscape (or vice versa). How can I detect when the orientation change event

Answer 1

use this method

@Override
public void onConfigurationChanged(Configuration newConfig) {
    super.onConfigurationChanged(newConfig);
    if (newConfig.orientation == Configuration.ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT)
    {
        Toast.makeText(getActivity(),"PORTRAIT",Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
       //add your code what you want to do when screen on PORTRAIT MODE
    }
    else if (newConfig.orientation == Configuration.ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE)
    {
        Toast.makeText(getActivity(),"LANDSCAPE",Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
        //add your code what you want to do when screen on LANDSCAPE MODE
   }
}

And Do not forget to Add this in your Androidmainfest.xml

android:configChanges="orientation|screenSize"

like this
