BTW – Baj, I am not 100% on this, but I think you have to code the header/footer views. I don’t recall the details, but their are methods to get called if you have such views. In your case your toolbar is a footer. Many of the other actions already account for your tool, nav and status bars.

That worked for me! What a bug … that sounds like the Y2K bug as it could take down every app on the planet for no good reason.

How did you know to look for it as a bug in the OS? I banged my head against the wall looking at my code for my syntax, usage, typo, etc. as a bug in my code. Wow – thanks!

Thanks for the tutorial! Great one!!
I tried adding a tool below the image. But a when the orientation is changed, the toolbar does not change its orientation.
Could you pls tell me how to solve this.Thanks

I refered to your example project, the name of the article is “shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation”.

yeah but to get it work with your code, what should I do? As I said before the images is rotating up in the corner. doesn’t yours?

Yes, move whatever code you have in shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation to receivedRotate, or call your shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation from receivedRotate if you like.

What project are you referring to? If your image rotate you’re doing something at least .

sry i don’t quite get it, just another noob :]

should I take all the code from:
(BOOL)shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)interfaceOrientation

and add to

-(void) receivedRotate: (NSNotification*) notification

Could someone paste how it should look whit this project. Because when I do it, the images rotates up into the corners and all seems to be wrong..?

It’s actually pretty easy to solve: see http://www.neoos.ch/news/46-development/109-iphone-os-30-and-the-new-shouldautorotatetointerfaceorientation-behaviour

I did try adding code for initWithFrame, it didn’t help however. The rotate event fires when the phone is tilted left but when NO is returned, it will not fire the rotated event when tilted back to portrait. I tested this on iPhone OS 3.0 beta 5. Please share your code if you are certain that it works.
