For TabView based application, there is many case that some of the view can be in landscape mode while other can't. In some cases, it is even complicated that one of the view in tab bar is navigation based and the view can only be in landscape mode after it is pushed to some view.

To handle this, it is very simple. Subclass you UITabBarViewController and overload this function:


- (BOOL)shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)interfaceOrientation {
return [self.selectedViewController shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:interfaceOrientation];
}
