I'd say that's partially an app bug, we let it know what orientation the device is in and it should translate the accelerometer data. > For me personally Big Moving Text does not work.

Same here, it should translate what "landscape" and "portrait" means. > Apart from getting the right orientation problem, there's also an > issue with an app being in the side stage.

That said, I'm not married to the idea - ultimately we want to leave more freedom to the user, somewhat forcing the app developers to do a slightly better job. But if it proves more problematic than useful, we can always reconsider. Maybe we need an additional switch in the display indicator that would indicate the app's preference for display orientation, but allow the user to force it off. Personally I hate apps forcing an orientation on me just because they can. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1573153 Title: M10 tablet does not respect the orientation specified in .desktop file To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-devices-system-image/+bug/1573153/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
