how to change a view from portrait mode to landscape mode and lock it?

Question

I have a movie view compressed at the right-bottom viewport with portrait mode. And the movie view will expand to full screen in landscape mode when user expand the movie vi

Answer 1

It's caused by this function,

func application(_ application: UIApplication,
                 supportedInterfaceOrientationsFor window: UIWindow?) -> UIInterfaceOrientationMask {
    return shouldRotate ? .allButUpsideDown : .portrait
}

change .allButUpsideDown to .landscape will do.

workable code,

AppDelegate.swift

func application(_ application: UIApplication,
                 supportedInterfaceOrientationsFor window: UIWindow?) -> UIInterfaceOrientationMask {
    return shouldRotate ? .landscape : .portrait
}

view controller,

func expandPlayerWindow() {
    self.player.view.frame = CGRect(x:0, y:-20, width: UIScreen.main.bounds.maxY, height: UIScreen.main.bounds.maxX)
    let appDelegate = UIApplication.shared.delegate as! AppDelegate
    appDelegate.shouldRotate = true // or false to disable rotation
    let value = UIInterfaceOrientation.landscapeLeft.rawValue
    UIDevice.current.setValue(value, forKey: "orientation")
    appDelegate.shouldRotate = true
    UIApplication.shared.isStatusBarHidden = true
}
