iOS Question Is there a tutorial for using two Designer files?

[Andrew Lindsay]

Hello,

I'd like to know if there is a tutorial on how to use two designer layout files for the Portrait and Landscape orientations of an app?

I have created two different layout files called Portrait and Landscape, and tried reloading the layouts in the screen resize event, without any success.

What is the correct way to do this? I have not seen a tutorial or sample code that makes any sense unfortunately.

best regards

Andrew

Hi Andrew,

Are you detecting the orientation of the device and are you loading the layouts in the application start event

The correct way is to use a single layout file with two variants.

OK, how do I do that? I'm sorry but I can't seem to find an example of how to do that.

is there a sample app that shows how this is managed?

Check the layout variants section in the beginner's guide: https://www.b4x.com/b4i/documentation.html

Look at chapter 6.7 Layout variants in the B4i Beginner's Guide.
