Corona simulator is vertically aligned - coronasdk

The emulator is default looks like below imageDefault Image
I want my emulator to look like this
New Image.I have rotated but when I open the project again it shows default image.I want the emulator to be in horizontal orientation.Please help

Make sure you have code below in your build.settings
settings =
{
orientation =
{
default = "landscapeLeft", -- Initial launch orientation
-- use "landscapeLeft" - Device in the horizontal position with the home button at the left
-- or
-- "landscapeRight" - Device in the horizontal position with the home button at the right
supported = {"landscapeLeft"}, -- Table of allowed options for auto-orientation
},
}
More information you can find in documentation in App Orientation section .

You can change the orientation of your simulator from portrait to landscape by changing the default value of orientation to either landscapeRight or landscapeLeft in your build.settings file. Or when you create a new project you can click on the sideways radio button under default orientation to change the orientation of emulator to landscape mode.

Keep Screen From Turning to Landscape Mode While App Is Running - Swift

I created an app with Swift and tested it out on my iPod touch. The problem is, sometimes I accidentally rotate the screen a little while playing, which throws off everything entirely. Is there a way in Swift to make it so even if the player rotates the device sideways it never turns to landscape mode?
You will want to
Click on the top-left corner (Show the Project Navigator)
Select the name of your project
See what is under General->Deployment Info->Device Orientation.
Adjust the tickboxes accordingly.
Screenshot of Device Orientation in General settings
If you click on your project in top left corner and on the Info tab you can un-tick some of the orientation tick boxes to only allow Portrait.
It's simple.It's not on Swift though.Just swipe up on your ipod and a little tab should come up. Once there,a button with an unlocked lock with an arrow around it.Click it and it should become locked.Now,it won't turn into landscape mode when you turn it! :)

Manage orientation landscape and portrait both in a app iPhone

According to my client's requirement I want to set Splash Screen orientation in landscape(right) then the orientation will come in portrait.. any idea how can I implement it?
Just rotate your splash image in an external editor so that is gets displayed in a landscape mode.
Just because you perceive it as landscape doesn't mean it's actually not "rotated portrait".
See your Splash Image will look like this:
Just rotate your image the way you want it to look like...
The iPhone only has a single splash screen, no matter which orientation it launches in. The iPad on the other hand will display a different splash screen image in portrait and in landscape mode.
If your iPhone interface supports both portrait and landscape then you must decide which way round you'd like to display that splash screen image. As Kanan says, design your landscape image (say in Photoshop), then rotate the canvas so that the image is portrait (but the content is still landscape).

Why iPhone sill rotate after I uncheck the device orientation (delete rotation from info.plist file)

I don't check any device orientation on the Deployment Info page, that is, there is no entry in the Supported interface orientations on the Info.plist. However, the iPhone still can rotate to landscape. How can I disable iPhone rotation? Do I need to write some code in the view controller? Thanks in advance.
When you don't check any orientation, it defaults to all of them. To keep the orientation at only portrait, you must check the portrait only orientation.
You can toggle here in the device orientation section which orientation that you want your app to support:
Just set it to portrait and you'll be fine.

Alert when orientation is changed

Im making my first app in xcode. I have set my supported interface orientation only to potrait. However, in one view I want to show an alert if the iphone is turned to the left (landscape left). Is there anyway to do that?

Landscape in VS Designer

I'm testing Mono for Android and would create a TableView which always set in Landscape. The designer in VS first showing Landscape but after next opening the .axml file, I get always Portrait style and can't switch to Landscape.

Make sure that your device has Landscape and Portrait "configurations".
Look at the "7in WSVGA (Tablet)" as an example.
Then you can pick the "config" (Landscape or Portrait) in the designer's toolbar.
