I think a lot of things should be worked on in regards with the side-stage.It 
should not cover the right part of the current'y running full screen. All apps 
should be able to run in normal mode and in side-stage since apps will be 
developed with scalability in mind.      From: Victor Thompson

portrait and allowable in landscape
   
Sorry, actually this seems clearly supported. I just didn't think to deploy to 
multiple devices.
A discussion on which apps should side stage is still probably warranted, given 
the lack of current apps doing so. This was probably discussed years ago, but 
could use some refreshing given any new designs that these apps have undergone.

Hey all,
I was going to file a bug against a number of apps that I think need to add the 
ability to be side-staged on a tablet. Not very many apps besides System 
Settings, Phone, Messaging, and Contacts have a side stage on tablet. Many of 
the core apps should (IMO, such as Clock, Calculator, Weather (in its recent 
design), and maybe others). But, I first wanted to make sure it's possible to 
be both 1) a side staged app and 2) either lock rotation on a phone or allow 
rotation on a phone. For instance, of the examples that I want to have a side 
stage, calculator should be allowed to rotate (IMO) on a phone--the others can 
probably be locked.
To be clear, I think many apps need to still add the side stage entry to the 
desktop file--I just want to make sure the underlying components allows for 
rotation AND the ability to side stage an app.
