Thanks for the pointer Daniel! I was looking at the code, but it seems like they are not using the hildon_gtk_window_set_portrait_flags() function at all. Instead they set those window properties manual and listen on DBus for a orientation change.
It´s good to know that it can be done somehow, but I´ve never seen it documented like that. It quite a lot of code only for rotating the screen... So is this the recommended way or is there another more hildon-ish way? Thanks! Conny daniel wilms wrote: > Hi Conny, > > omweather used the orientation switch and it works fine.
