Is there anyway to rotate the UIViewController displayed on Storyboard as Landscape? By default it displays in a Portrait mode and wondering if there is anyway I can change that?
For iPhone app!
Select UIViewController on storyboard.
tap on Utitlies button at top right corner to show Utilities panel.
Select Attributes Inspector.
Under Simulated Metrics section, you can change Orientation of UIViewController to Landscape.

My iPad application is fixed on landscape, and can't be changed during the whole lifetime.
I setup the project as:
and then in storyboard, I set the orientation as the landscape, but I don't know why the view does not change to landscape?
Note: I am using Swift, XCode6.3.2, iOS8.1
In the any | component click on it and mouse over you can see the bottom text said the size of view for iPhone and iPad like following images.
if your application size class desable then that show direct reflaction like old way. but when your app size class enable that need to use with wAny hComponet
if size class enable with landscape:
Same if size class disable with landscape:
If you want to use size class then you need to check viewcontroller preview like following step:
Select view controller and then click on show the assistant editore.
Then you have two part on your xcode like following:
select a preview from following dropdown screenshot:
after select prview you can see the right side one view that is the preview of your viewcontroller view's you can change it landscape or portrait by following.
you can also check with all size by create new preview view by following.
In simulated metrics, you've got the size selected as Inferred. If you want to see what it looks like on a specific device type, select that from the first drop down list.
In the storyboard, the scene is universal so that you can use auto layout to adapt for various devices and orientations.
You can select iPad specifically from the simulated metrics:
Or you can, modify universal storyboard layout from the bottom panel.
Updated answer for Xcode 8 -
Click the View as: text at the bottom of the storyboard.
My ViewController won't rotate in storyboard, despite being set to landscape. Furthermore the device orientation have been set to only allow landscape. What am i missing?
My guess is that you have "Use Size Classes" selected. Try this link: Enabling Size Classes in Interface Builder
I would like for iPad that on portrait orientation shows only the MasterView of UISplitViewController, and on landscape show the both master view and detail view?How should I do?
the system is iOS 7.
As per my experience, Use UIViewController instead of using UISpiltViewController .
In this UIViewController have two UIView (1-UITableView and, 2-DeatilView subclass of UIView). Now have segue to DetailView from cell of UITableView . In UIViewController you can have TableView and DetailsView to display like SpiltView.
For LandScape and Portrait Resize the TableView.
Means Now you can customise according to orientation.
I am creating an iPad app that is landscape only. I have a main window xib but the window is portrait. When the window is selected and I look at the Simulated Metrics the Orientation shows a dimmed (non selectable) option. In deployment Info landscape Left and Landscape Right are selected. I need landscape so I can design my viewController in landscape.
How can I get the main Window to be in landscape?
In iOS, you do not really use a main window xib, but a storyboard. In the storyboard you can choose "Landscape" from the "Orientation" menu under "Simulated Metrics" without problem when configuring any view controller.
In Xcode 3, I was able to select the rotation arrow at the top left of the window to design the window for the application in landscape. However, I can't find the same function in Xcode 4. Can anyone help please?
Thanks.
select your view, press cmd+option+0, click on the the shield icon "Show the attribute inspector" and then change Orientation to landscape.
The Window orientation is not very intuitive (since the view and the controller are both controlled by the orientation setting in the "Simulated Metrics" dialog). It's actually controlled at the four corners of the window displayed in the view editor. Just click and drag the corners of the window to resize it.
