ipad splash screen doesn't rotate - ios

Question

I would like to be able to rotate my splash screen on my ipad to landscape right and left.
i have enabled landscape right and left orientation in my .plist file. i've added 4 files for the LandscapeRight and LandscapeLeft:
Default-LandscapeRight#2x~ipad.png
Default-LandscapeLeft#2x~ipad.png
Default-LandscapeRight~ipad.png
Default-LandscapeLeft~ipad.png
although this shouldn't matter, in my rootviewcontroller i've got:
- (BOOL)shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)interfaceOrientation {
return (interfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeRight || interfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeLeft);
return ( UIInterfaceOrientationIsLandscape( interfaceOrientation ) );
}
The splash screen loads, but it doesn't rotate.
what am i doing wrong?

Answer 1

As I Know Device does not recognise the Orientation in the duration of Splash Image.These SPlash images Default-LandscapeRight#2x~ipad.png
Default-LandscapeLeft#2x~ipad.png
Default-LandscapeRight~ipad.png recognise when app going to launch device then device takes Appropriate Splash Image.
Default-LandscapeLeft~ipad.png.
You can do the Alternate solution if you interested.and this is just my concept nothing more
1 create the UIIMageView for this Purpose and Add it as SUbview to Window.
2 Set iamge to that UIIMageView.
3 Set Sleep method for 3-4 seconds. like sleep(4).
4 As call goes to RootViewController manage the Orientation of Image.
like below method
this is the Method suppose you have defind In The AppDelegate class will manage the Image Orientation.
-(void)checkOrientationforSplash:(UIInterfaceOrientation)interfaceOrentaion
{
if (splashImageView.hidden==FALSE) {
if(UI_USER_INTERFACE_IDIOM() == UIUserInterfaceIdiomPad){
if (interfaceOrentaion==UIInterfaceOrientationPortrait|| interfaceOrentaion==UIInterfaceOrientationPortraitUpsideDown) {
UIImage *image=[UIImage imageNamed:#"Default-Portrait.png"];
splashImageView.frame=CGRectMake(0.0, 0.0, image.size.width, image.size.height);
[splashImageView setImage:image];
}
else {
UIImage *image=[UIImage imageNamed:#"Default-Landscape.png"];
splashImageView.frame=CGRectMake(0.0, 20.0, image.size.width, image.size.height);
[splashImageView setImage:image];
}
}
}
5 You can Manage That Image Form in the Mid of App Instaltion, RoortViewController.
6 Remove That Splash Image At Specific Point.
-(void)removeSplash
{
[splashImageView setHidden:YES];
}
I hope it'll help you.
