RE: change orientation on just one card
I found that (at least on mobile) pass is always a good idea for pre/open/resize handlers. For example I found if did not pass resizestack... In iOS the page just flipped hard and did not smoothly rotate. Also things would sometimes go sideways if didn't pass preopencard and opencard. So. I started passing every engine message and then got myself in trouble after passing returninfield and started sending returns all over the place in a loop. I now try to make a judgment call on what messages to pass. A guide-line on engine messages to pass would be helpful.

I can't seem to discover any. I haven't ever tried to do that, but reading the docs, it says that setting allowed orientations only takes effect the next time an orientation changes. If I'm reading it right, and the user is already in portrait mode, then the orientation restriction wouldn't happen until after they try to rotate the device at least once. Maybe just structuring your resizestack handler on that card would be enough. Assuming you have a resizestack handler, always set up the layout to landscape if you're on that card. -- Jacqueline Landman Gay | jac...@hyperactivesw.com HyperActive Software | http://www.hyperactivesw.com ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
