I’m quite a newbie in Corona. And right now I’m having a difficulty in grasping the orientation changes. Can anyone give me a guide in handling orientation changes properly?
You need the following in your build.settings file :
orientation = { default ="portrait", supported = { "portrait", "portraitUpsideDown", "landscapeRight", "landscapeLeft", }, },
You need the following listener in your main.lua . This will allow you to detect the changes and trigger any screen formatting changes etc
--The following code shows how an app can respond to orientation events: local function onOrientationEvent( event ) local eventType = event.type --print (eventType) if ( eventType == "portrait" ) then elseif ( eventType == "portraitUpsideDown" ) then elseif ( eventType == "landscapeRight" ) then elseif ( eventType == "landscapeLeft" ) then end end Runtime:addEventListener( "orientation", onOrientationEvent )You need the following in your build.settings file :

I did the same as you mentioned above but still getting some problem.
Some time my screen is stuck in the middle of the device. It’s showing half of the screen in right hand side of device and it happens only in portrait mode.
I am stuck at this point. How do i solve this?
Here is my code:
<lua>
function onOrientationChange( event )
if system.orientation == “portrait” or system.orientation == “portraitUpsideDown” then
_W = 768
_H = 1024
_X = _W/2
_Y = _H/2
else
_W = 1024
_H = 768
_X = _W/2
_Y = _H/2
end
end
Runtime:addEventListener( “orientation”, onOrientationChange )
</lua>
Here is my build.setting and config.lua file:
<lua>
settings =
{
orientation =
{
default = “portrait”,
supported =
{
“portrait”, “portraitUpsideDown”, “landscapeRight”, “landscapeLeft”
}
},
ipad =
{
plist=
{
UIApplicationExitsOnSuspend = false,
UIStatusBarHidden = true,
UIPrerenderedIcon = true,
CFBundleIconFile = “Icon.png”,
UIAppFonts = {“Harrowprint.ttf”,“Thonburi.otf”,“helvetica-neue-bold.ttf”},
CFBundleDisplayName = “Quran”,
CFBundleIconFiles = {
“Icon.png”,
“Icon@2x.png”,
“Icon-72.png”,
},
},
},
}
</lua>
<lua>
application =
{
content =
{
fps = 60,
width = 768,
height = 1024,
scale = “letterBox”,
},
}
</lua>
Any help will be appreciated?
