[android-developers] Re: Set Screen Orientation of a Tab

2009-03-19 Thread Uri.Kanonov

I see. Is there any way you can think of that will enable me to set
the orientation per displayed tab (without wrecking havoc)?
Thanks again for all the help!

Just set it to what you want in the top-level activity and make sure not to
change it to something else until the user explicitly changes tabs.

When you call setRequestedOrientation(), your activity will be restarted in
the new orientation.  During that time you could very well end up calling it
with a different value while initializing.  You might try putting
breakpoints wherever you call it and seeing why it is being called.
