iPad problems with view rotation

Question

Hello all,

So I am presenting a full screen modal view when the user selects an item from a popover containing a table. The problem is when the modal view is displayed and the iPad is rotated, the status bar spins, but the view stays in whatever orientation it was in before. It looks very strange. Because I am presenting it from a popover, I believe it may have something to do with that. I have all my view rotation delegate methods in place and functioning. Does anyone have any idea what may be causing this behavior or seen anything like it before? The main view behind it is rotating perfectly fine, just not the modal view. Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

I believe the problem is a bug in UISplitViewController when a full-screen modal view is presented over top. I've worked around it by using a different style, like UIModalPresentationFormSheet or UIModalPresentationPageSheet. I hope this will be fixed in iOS 4.2...
