There's one more thing about rotation that I think hasn't been
discussed yet (among other things because it's a relatively recent
change) and might be a good idea to mention in the wiki.

Hi all!
For some time already Conboy has the ability to relayout it´s widget
when switched from landscape into portrait mode.
Now I wanted to know whether or not the window is actually rotated when
the device is rotated, so I asked on tmo and Andre was so kind and did
the test. It looks like
Hi Conny,
omweather used the orientation switch and it works fine. Perhaps it would
help you to have a look at the sources there:

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,
Just a bit more info to my last post
The omweather code is doing the following:
- Listens on DBus for device orientation change
- If changed to portrait, it sets the window properties
HILDON_PORTRAIT_MODE_SUPPORT and HILDON_PORTRAIT_MODE_REQUEST both to TRUE.
- If changed to landscape, it

thanks for the help :) I see how you are doing it and I´m sure it works.
I was just thinking that it should be easier and that it would not be
required to listen to DBus by ourself.

I think this existing way is correct. Very often, the program will need
to reorder some UI elements in window after rotation.

Yes I know, I´m already doing the reordering. For that I listen to
changes of the display size using the size-changed signal from GdkScreen.

Why? What happens if the device is portrait before you open a window and you
don't set HILDON_PORTRAIT_MODE_SUPPORT?
