    <p>I would like to defer auto rotating the user interface until the device has settled on an orientation for a number of seconds, rather than driving the user insane and flicking willy nilly whenever they tilt the device a few degrees off axis by mistake. </p> <p>the closest i can get to this (which is by no means what I want, as it locks the UI) is:</p> <pre><code>- (BOOL)shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)interfaceOrientation { // Overriden to allow any orientation. [NSThread sleepForTimeInterval:2.0]; return YES; } </code></pre> <p>what i would like to do is use something like this - which works in principle, by checking the console log, but i need the appropriate line of code that has been commented out. </p> <pre><code>-(void) deferredAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:(NSTimer *) timer { autoRotationTimer = nil; UIInterfaceOrientation interfaceOrientation = (UIInterfaceOrientation)[timer.userInfo integerValue]; NSLog(@"switching to new orientation %d now",interfaceOrientation); // replace this with code to induce manual orientation switch here. //[self forceAutoRotateToInterfaceOrientation:interfaceOrientation]; } - (BOOL)shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)interfaceOrientation { // Overriden to allow any orientation. [autoRotationTimer invalidate]; autoRotationTimer = [NSTimer scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval:2.0 target:self selector:@selector(deferredAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:) userInfo:[NSNumber numberWithInt:(int)interfaceOrientation ] repeats:NO]; NSLog(@"denying autorotate, deffering switch to orientation %d by 2 seconds",interfaceOrientation); return NO; } </code></pre> <p>I realize there are sometimes many ways to do things, so if this approach is not the most efficient, and someone can suggest another way to do this, I am all ears. My main criteria is I want to delay the onset of autorotation, whilst keeping a responsive user interface if indeed they have only leaned to the left slightly because they are in a bus that just went around a corner etc.</p> <p>EDIT: I found a solution which may not be app store friendly, however i am a few weeks away from completion, and someone may answer this in the meantime. this works calls an undocumented method. the (UIPrintInfoOrientation) typecast is just to suppress the compiler warning, and does not affect the value being passed.</p> <pre><code>-(void ) forceUIOrientationInterfaceOrientation:(UIDeviceOrientation) interfaceMode { [(id)[UIDevice currentDevice] setOrientation:(UIPrintInfoOrientation) interfaceMode]; } </code></pre> <p>full implementation which includes re-entrance negation is as follows:</p> <pre><code>- (void)viewDidLoad { [super viewDidLoad]; acceptNewAutoRotation = YES; } -(void ) forceUIOrientationInterfaceOrientation:(UIDeviceOrientation) interfaceMode { [(id)[UIDevice currentDevice] setOrientation:(UIPrintInfoOrientation) interfaceMode]; } -(void) deferredAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:(NSTimer *) timer { autoRotationTimer = nil; acceptNewAutoRotation = YES; [self forceUIOrientationInterfaceOrientation:[[UIDevice currentDevice] orientation]]; } - (BOOL)shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)interfaceOrientation { // Overriden to allow any orientation. [autoRotationTimer invalidate]; if (acceptNewAutoRotation) { autoRotationTimer = nil; acceptNewAutoRotation = NO; return YES; } else { autoRotationTimer = [NSTimer scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval:2.0 target:self selector:@selector(deferredAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:) userInfo:[NSNumber numberWithInt:(int)interfaceOrientation ] repeats:NO]; return NO; } } </code></pre>

    1. COas mentioned in the question i have now edited, i have found a temporary solution that might not fly with the app store, so if someone has a better method, please let me know.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
