I'm new to this group and I've got one thing that's been bugging me. In my application, I want to override the default reorientation from androids for two reasons:
1) my main view is animated and the redraw routine checks for changes in the screen height 2) It is faster to not reload everything again 3) My application allows users to decide what positions they would like things in, and I would like the positions to be proportional to the last position before the orientation switch, not in the default position I know, onSaveInstanceState, but again it is faster to just let the refresh routine handle the changes. Anyway, I have a bunch of custom menus that reside in both the layout and layout-land folders. I would like the program to take the proper menu based on that, but it doesn't. So I'm looking for the method that is called somewhere between onCreate and onResume that tells the program which xml documents to use. I don't really want to have to change the views programmatically, because that would create some extra overhead. I also do not want to work around by creating two versions in the ./../layout folder--though this is the option I'm looking at right now. Any help is greatly appreciated! and I've already searched through a lot of the Android Docs for this to no avail. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Beginners" group.
