How to set device orientation?

Discussions Support
#1

Hello, I’m using urhosharp with xamarin, and trying to build an Android app, but my problem is that I don’t find a method to set the orientation to portrait. I can turn the camera but, for example the debug text is still in landscape mode.
Is it something in Urho3d or android side ?

Thanks

hi! unfortunately this is the wrong forum to ask questions about the c# fork - thats a separate project and although i would love to help you, I’m yet to build one android project on Urho so I am utterly unqualified, other than to tell you that you are barking up the wrong tree for help with c# stuff here. This forum is dedicated to the master fork, which has no C# support. Still happy to help if there is any crossover but it looks like you are asking in the wrong place.

Thank you anyway.

Never use Xamarin before but otherwise the default orientation for Android app in general is set in the Android manifest file.

Yes you’re true, I needed to change ScreenOrientation = ScreenOrientation.Landscape to ScreenOrientation = ScreenOrientation.Portrait in MainActivity.cs :

To me it seems the choice is as follows:
Use Urho3D and get help whenever you like here or use UrhoSharp and wander the realm of ignorance.
