Scene Orientation Lock
-
Hello! My app I am creating is meant to be played solely in portrait mode. I wish for the app to be played only in portrait mode as when it flips to landscape mode some issues occur. I use a combination of scenes and ui.views. I found a thread for the ui.Views but I am more concerned about scenes remaining in portrait mode, as my minigames within the app run on a scene and are the main thing I do not want to rotate to landscape. If there is any way to lock the scene orientation I would be grateful if anyone could share it.
Thanks!

@RocketBlaster05, from the docs:
scene.run(scene, orientation=DEFAULT_ORIENTATION, frame_interval=1, anti_alias=False, show_fps=False, multi_touch=True)Runs the given Scene object. By default, the scene runs in the current device orientation, set the parameter to PORTRAIT or LANDSCAPE to force a specific orientation (and to disallow auto-rotation). Important: The orientation parameter has no effect on iPads starting with iOS 10 because it is technically not possible to lock the orientation in an app that supports split-screen multitasking.

@mikael ah ok. I will still put the code in for phones but yes I am working on my iPad so I guess I’ll have to assume it works. Thanks!
