Landscape xib appears as portrait

Question

I have a view controller and separate nib files for portrait and landscape. On rotating, I load the respective nib. The methods

 shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrie         


        

Answer 1

I had done something similar to this only instead of making an nib file separately I just added two subviews to the main nib as prtraitView and Landscape View

and switched them as follows

In viewDidAppear method

-(void)viewDidAppear:(BOOL)animated{




    if(UIDeviceOrientationIsPortrait(self.interfaceOrientation))
    {
        self.portraitVIew.frame=self.view.bounds;
        self.portraitVIew.frame=self.view.frame;
        [self.view addSubview:self.portraitVIew];
    }else{
        self.landscapeView.frame=self.view.frame;
        [self.view addSubview:self.landscapeView];
    }
    self.view.autoresizesSubviews = YES;




    [[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter]
     addObserver:self
     selector:@selector(deviceOrientationDidChangeNotification:)
     name:UIDeviceOrientationDidChangeNotification
     object:nil];


}

and then Implemented deviceOrientationDidChangeNotification as follows

- (void)deviceOrientationDidChangeNotification:(NSNotification*)note
{

    if ([[UIDevice currentDevice] userInterfaceIdiom]==UIUserInterfaceIdiomPad) {

    }else{
        UIDeviceOrientation orientation = [[UIDevice currentDevice] orientation];
        if(UIDeviceOrientationIsLandscape(self.interfaceOrientation))
        {
            self.landscapeView.hidden=NO;
            self.landscapeView.frame=self.view.frame;
            [self.portraitVIew removeFromSuperview];


            [self.view addSubview:self.landscapeView];
        }else {
            self.landscapeView.hidden=YES;
            self.portraitVIew.frame=self.view.frame;
            NSLog(@"Portrait");

            [self.view addSubview:self.portraitVIew];
        }
    }



}

It worked very well for me..
