Hi, Well, preventing an orientation change is easy. But what about doing it at run time.
Say, I have an activity which supports orientation change in normal situations. It has say three Edit Texts. There's also a button, which when clicked would do some processing in a thread while showing a ProgressDialog which is not cancellable. Ok, so till the user hits the Button, I want the activity to be able to adapt the orientation changes. I have two layouts files for each orientation with different layout schemes. What I want is this. Once the user clicks on the button, and the ProgressDialog is showing, I don't want the activity now to be re- created again when the orientation changes. So, before showing the ProgressDialog, is there any way to tell the Activity not to handle Orientation change? Also, once the process is complete, and the ProgressDialog is removed, I want the Activity again to be able to handle orientation changes. :) I know, we can save the state of all the things, and retrieve them back. But, just curious if this can be done? Thanks and Regards, Kumar Bibek -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
