How do I force a specific UIInterfaceOrientation on an individual view in a UINavigationController?

Question

Okay, so here\'s the situation:

I have an app in which I only want ONE specific view in a UINavigationController to have a landscape orientation. This view is a UIIm

You can try to force Device to rotate to necessary orientation - but you need to handle it manually (in addition to overriding UIViewController orientation handling methods).

To rotate device you can use next methods:

[[UIApplication sharedApplication] setStatusBarOrientation:UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeRight];

But in it may not work in all situations...

Also available undocumented approach:

[[UIDevice currentDevice] performSelector:NSSelectorFromString(@"setOrientation:")
                                       withObject:(__bridge id)((void*)UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeLeft)];
