I created a split view controller application. I want to display my buttons and controls in landscape and portrait view differently(only the position).
When I change the orientation to landscape it shows the controls in portrait only. When I click on the cell in the tableview then it will show in correct position. What is the reason for that? Help me please.
I am a little confused about your question, but what I think you are trying to ask is how to change your view if the screen is in landscape or portrait orientation. Without seeing your code it is hard to tell you exactly how to do it, but the general idea (at least how I do it in my code) is that you want to split your code into two parts one that is in landscape orientation, and one that is in portrait orientation. You can tell the difference by seeing if the screen height is greater than the screen width.

How to setup just one landscape view for whole app? I want to show only one view (qrcode) when phone is rotated independently in wich view this happened. What is the easiest way to do it?
My app is in portrait and I want show users code when it rotated to landscape in whatever view this was done.
See this answer. Just untick Portrait and tick on whatever Landscape orientation you want.

Edit:
You should use Autolayout in your Storyboard to set up the right constraints so even in Landscape mode, the label for the code shows up. See this tutorial for more info.

really new to iPad development here. I made some mockups for what I'm trying to do.
I have a layout like so with options and menu at the bottom. When I rotate to landscape I want to get something like this:
In landscape the menu bar will always be on the right. In portrait always at the bottom. The contents of the square keep their position and rotation regardless of the device orientation.
What would be the rest way of going about this? I have considered removing all the views as the device begins to rotate and then replacing them using new coordinates. Doesn't seem like the animation will be smooth though. I understand how to do constraints, but I want the top square to stick to the tom when portrait and stick to the left when landscape, not always at the top. Any pointers on this would be really appreciated! thank you
This is a job for size classes. They let you define separate layouts for different orientations and would be an ideal solution for your problem. However, for some reason, the difference between iPad portrait and landscape orientation is not directly supported by the the current implementation of size classes.
There is a workaround, Sizing class for iPad portrait and Landscape Modes, that can redefine the meaning of the existing size classes to fit your problem. In other words, you can use the portrait and landscape size classes for the iPhone and re-map them so that they apply to the iPad.
They are selected by a 3x3 grid in Xcode’s Interface Builder. If you play with it a little, it’s easy to grasp the concept.
Here is a screen capture of the control in Interface Builder that lets you switch among your different layouts:
I'm making an application for iPad in Xcode in template Master-detail application. I need to do a design for portrait mode and another for landscape mode. My first idea was make two UIViews and make a rule: if portrait, show View1, if landscape, show View2. But I have text fields in it and when the user will be typing something inside and then rotate the device, text will be deleted, because it will be another UIView... Can anybody help me, how to do it, please?
You can have one view and use springs and struts or use autolayout.
You can also add views and hide/show them based on the orientation change.
You can change the size and position of the view on orientation change.
When I change directly from landscape right to landscape left there is a bug.
I have a web view and image view. In each state I have declared specific width height and position. When I am in portrait mode I have specific coordinates for the views. I also have set them for the landscape modes. When I change quickly from landscape left to landscape right all the proportions gets messed up!
I need to have access to the state when my application is in landscape right mode and directly i rotate to landscape left. i need to access it to do modifications, and if i can't how can i then force my application to pass through the portrait mode before going to the other landscape mode, Ex:
Landscape right -> landscape left will take place as follows Landscape right -> Portrait -> landscape left.
Because if i rotate it directly from right to left i will have a bug in my software so i need to fix it.
Note that i am using a tab bar controller and i have successfully subclassed it and everything is ok.
The problem here was with my handling of the orientation change, i should have from the beginning used :
if(UIInterfaceOrientationIsPortrait(self.interfaceOrientation))
This handed me the option to control each state. Hope this helps a future person
I want same view in portrait and landscape in splitview in iPad Application. In portrait I get rootviewcontroller as popOver. I don't want that. It should be same as it is displayed in landscape mode. Is it possible?
Well, I'm afraid that the term same is a bit confusing here. There is no problem for you to develop a similar view, but evidently with other size and proportions. You can perfectly dismiss the popover on the portrait mode, and compose your new view with a tableview controller at the left side of the screen.
