Just tried using the layout-land folder and it worked like a charm! Just as an FYI, it also works when using include tags in your layouts. Below is the configuration for my test case:
- res/layout - main.xml - view1.xml - view2.xml - view3.xml - res/layout-land - view1.xml - view2.xml - view3.xml The files view1, view2, view3 are set up differently for portrait or landscape mode and main.xml looks like this: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"; android:orientation="vertical" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:gravity="center_vertical" > <include layout="@layout/view1" /> <include layout="@layout/view2" /> <include layout="@layout/view3" /> </LinearLayout> Switching between portrait and landscape correctly picks the right views! Is this documented anywhere? I don't remember reading about the layout-land folder anywhere... ---------------------------------------------------------------------- There are only 10 types of people in the world...
