Question

AIR 25 (and 24 and 23) Opening Camera Roll flips landscape app to portrait temporarily

Hi,

I've got a landscape iOS app that prompts the user to choose an image from their camera roll. When I open the camera roll on an iPhone the app temporarily flips from a landscape app to a portrait app (which obviously looks pretty bad as my interface is not the correct aspect ratio so I get a cropped interface and the bottom of the screen is just white).

After the user has selected an image (or cancelled) the app looks fine again. The problem is just for a second whilst waiting for the camera roll interface to show.

I raised an issue with AIR24 in the tracker system AIR-4198224 (Tracker) - but was hoping it would be fixed in AIR25. I've just tested it now and it still seems to be a problem in AIR25 beta

It has worked wonderfully in the past - hoping we can get a fix in for AIR25 ?

Hi there. Just wondering if there was any news on this. I'd got an app that I really want to release an update to, so could really do with this being fixed. It worked brilliantly in earlier versions of AIR.

Many thanks.

Just tried this in 25.0.0.126 and it's still an issue.

Is there anyway we can get this fixed in AIR25 - I need to release an update to a number of apps now and this bug is stopping me.

(Link to bug in tracker :- Tracker )

Many thanks.
