[maemo-developers] Qt Autorotation

[From: Felipe Crochik]

I combined the reply to all post:

My application seems to start "autorotating" after I click on the
application title to show the menu for the first time. I don't have to
select anything and I don't do anything different on my code about the
implementation of the menu. 

Very odd... I will have to try some different things to see if I can isolate
the problem further. 

@Daniil: The test project works fine on my n900
@Luca: I don't think you need to set on all windows, just the top most seems
to be enough.
@Attila: I did not know that.

Thank you
Felipe

Hi Felipe!

Two things. Autorotation was around since N900 sales release.
And this test app works for me fine in PR 1.2 without pressing anything.

#include <QApplication>
#include <QMainWindow>

int
main (int argc,
      char **argv)
{
    QApplication app(argc, argv);
    QMainWindow win;
    win.setAttribute(Qt::WA_Maemo5AutoOrientation, true);
    win.show();

    return app.exec();
}
