Define the orientation like this in the build.settings file.

settings =   
{  
  
 orientation =   
 {  
 default = "landscapeLeft",  
 supported =   
 {  
 "landscapeRight",  
 },  
  
 },  
}

then set define the screen resolution in the config.lua file

application =   
{  
 content =   
 {   
 width = 1024,  
 height = 768,   
 scale = "zoomEven"  
 }  
}

if you want the Default.png loading image to be landscape too then you just make it that way in your image editor of your choice. [import]uid: 13560 topic_id: 7910 reply_id: 28093[/import]

thanks for your explications, but I’m really, really new on corona.

Where can I find this file “build.setttings” ? or where i need to put it ?
thanks by advance :wink:

P.S. : for information I have (create it copy/paste) put it in the app directory, but no effects… [import]uid: 11797 topic_id: 7910 reply_id: 28095[/import]
