Hello,

I have found out how to switch to landscape mode with N90 : SetOrientationL(EAppUiOrientationLandscape); 
Unfortunately I can't use my keys or even catch the Keyevent. The only keys that could be used are the "Right-Side placed
Photo" and "Joystick" Key. I haven't found any description on this topic so far.

Second question : is it possible to prevent the fact that when i turn the display the camera App is launched ? This is
very annoying when you want to use the landscape mode in a confortable way!

Thx a lot for your help !
May

What's the N90 like as a phone?

I suppose this is a prototype?  In my experience you have to count on bugs like these when dealing with prototypes.

Hi Wink

No, the N90 isn't a prototype  Wink Here is a picture :


I can say it's one of the most stable Nokia Phone I've ever had in my hands.
The Landscapemode works, but only the Joystick key and the red button on the top of it ( on the right metallic side of the camera) are working.  Undecided

I think you are doing it wrong, you need to create your application with "automatic" orientation. Go and get the latest scalable UI document from forum.nokia.com!

Hi
I dealt with the same problem. Here is the solution
When you turn the screen, the phone's own camera application comes to foreground thus disabling all other keys of the phone.
When this happens your application will receive a background even. When it does, you can force your  application to return to foreground and every functinality will be restored.

hope this helps

Hi
I've the same problem with the camera application that comes to foreground.
I can get the background even, but then how do you force your application to return to foreground ?
