Modal View Controller force Landscape orientation in iOS 6

Question

I have a UITabBarController presented in Portrait mode. On one of the tabs I have a button that shows a UIViewController modally (A simple storyboard segue performs the action).

Answer 1

In iOS 6 it seems to be this method may help force a specific orientation on iOS 6.

- (NSUInteger)supportedInterfaceOrientations {
    return UIInterfaceOrientationMaskLandscape;
}

I am still trying to get it to work and will update with any findings.
