To get an Android application to display in landscape mode only (to lock it in landscape mode), add this line to your Activity definition in the AndroidManifest.xml file:
android:screenOrientation="landscape" For example, I’m writing an Android football game right now, and this is the definition for my main activity in the Android manifest file: <activity android:name=".MainActivity" *android:screenOrientation="landscape"* android:label="@string/app_name" > <intent-filter> <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" /> <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" /> </intent-filter> </activity> On Wednesday, June 17, 2020 at 7:59:39 PM UTC+5:30, Dave McLaughlin wrote: > > I want to set the build so that the only screen orientation available is > landscape. > > I have disabled autorotation but one app I run always changes the display > to portrait and this is not ideal on a landscape only display.
