Iron Bone commented on CB-5634:
-------------------------------
The problem was reported 1,5 year before. Orientation is one of the few main
properties in cordova. I do not understand why it is not possible to solve this
problem. If it is not possible then cordova should remove this property from
the description - such a situation is just a shame for such project.
I teach cordova and my students ask me why it does not work. I have no answer
- so the students suggest to use something else.
> Orientation Preference is ignored in Android, should be parsed by CLI

> Key: CB-5634
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-5634
> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Amazon FireOS, Android, CLI, Docs, iOS
> Reporter: Joe Bowser
> Assignee: Andrew Grieve
>
> The docs say that an Orientation preference is supposed to work across all
> platforms. However, Android's activities can only be locked to an
> orientation by modifying the AndroidManifest.xml.
> To get past this, we either change the docs, or we support this in the CLI.
> I feel that adding an XML parser to the scripts is complete overkill, since
> we don't have any tests for our platform scripts, and I personally think
> they're a giant pile of technical debt.
