How to make only a subtitle landscape?

Question

I know that there is one question: Only the ONE TYPE mode of the landscape , and I carefully read it before asking about it.

I have a WKWebview named as webview in my application and the webview has a subtitle named as a player. I used web browsing to load a webpage and a player to play videos.

By default, the player shrinks to the bottom right of the web browser, and I want to expand the player to landscape when I click the “Expand” button for the player.

Since web browsing and the player do not work in WebViewController.swift, this indicates the same controller. How can I just approach the landscape of the player?

Answer 1

You can try with several UIWindow . Each UIWindow can have its own root view controller. Thus, it is possible that one window rotates and the other does not. I myself used this approach, and it worked very well for me. It can be very difficult to make your subview an independent UIWindow , but I think it's worth a try. Hope this information helps.

From my point of view, it is not possible to set only one orientation for a subview in an application. The view controller can have only one orientation (landscape / portrait)

You can put a dummy video controller to the right from the bottom of the screen and above that, you can put a button or something else (tappable object). When you click on a button or a custom object, you can introduce a new viewing controller in which you can play video only in landscape mode.

After the video has finished playing, you can turn off the view controller.

You can check the class when your application receives a change of orientation request, as shown below.

 #pragma mark - Orientations Methods - (NSUInteger)application:(UIApplication *)application supportedInterfaceOrientationsForWindow:(UIWindow *)window { if ([[self.window.rootViewController presentedViewController] isKindOfClass:[MPMoviePlayerViewController class]]) { return UIInterfaceOrientationMaskAllButUpsideDown; } else { if ([[self.window.rootViewController presentedViewController] isKindOfClass:[UINavigationController class]]) { // look for it inside UINavigationController UINavigationController *nc = (UINavigationController *)[self.window.rootViewController presentedViewController]; // is at the top? if ([nc.topViewController isKindOfClass:[MPMoviePlayerViewController class]]) { return UIInterfaceOrientationMaskAllButUpsideDown; // or it presented from the top? } else if ([[nc.topViewController presentedViewController] isKindOfClass:[MPMoviePlayerViewController class]]) { return UIInterfaceOrientationMaskAllButUpsideDown; } } } return UIInterfaceOrientationMaskPortrait; } 

This method will verify that if your class is a movie player, it allows you to rotate your image. You must be contacted when the user clicks the end button in the movie player
