Hi Ben, QML Viewer provides a simple context property runtime.orientation for listening to orientation changes on a device. It can update to four different values: portrait, portrait inverted, landscape and landscape inverted. Currently the property is updated on N900 and Symbian S60 5.0 and newer devices. For more information, see http://doc.trolltech.com/4.7-snapshot/qmlviewer.html.
For more complex orientation handling, you are better off using Sensor APIs from Qt Mobility: http://doc.trolltech.com/qtmobility-1.1-tp/sensors-api.html Qt Mobility teams are working on providing QML bindings for their APIs: http://labs.trolltech.com/blogs/2010/07/27/qt-mobility-110-technology-preview/ The QML syntax will be something like import QtMobility.sensors 1.1 OrientationSensor { active: true onReadingChanged: { console.log("New orientation: " + reading.orientation); } } Cheers, Joona From: qt-qml-boun...@trolltech.com [mailto:qt-qml-boun...@trolltech.com] On Behalf Of ext Ben Marinic Sent: Thursday, July 29, 2010 7:16 PM To: qt-qml@trolltech.com Subject: [Qt-qml] Orientation listener Hi I need to listen for orientation changes in my QML view. Specifically the following: tilt right, tilt left, point up, point down, tip forward, upwards and downwards. I can see through some old list serv threads that the syntax has changed a little over time (binding to orientations). What is the current method for listening and executing a function on an orientation change in QML?
