Hello Folks,
it's me again - I have decided to undertake the impossible: creating a realtime game in Qt for S60.
In order to do this, I would need two things:
a) How can I force the device into landscape mode. It doesn't have to be the system - if I can get the QPainter to swap the x and y axis, its ok too.
b) How can I get my QMainWindow to not display the applicaton title and exit button?
[CODE]int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
QApplication a(argc, argv);
// lock orientation
CAknAppUi* appUi = dynamic_cast<CAknAppUi*>(CEikonEnv::Static()->AppUi());
if(appUi){
QT_TRAP_THROWING(appUi ->SetOrientationL( CAknAppUi::EAppUiOrientationLandscape));
}
ScreenDemo w(&a);
// force full-screen mode
w.showFullScreen();
return a.exec();
}
[/CODE]
Hi,
thank you so much!
However, when editing the mmp file to add the required libraries, I get Carbide whining about how I am editing a "derived file".
WHat is going on here?

In Qt for Symbian, .mmp is generated automatically by qmake, based on your .pro file. You typically should not edit .mmp directly - add your libraries into .pro file instead, see [URL="http://wiki.forum.nokia.com/index.php/CS001517_-_Lock_application_orientation_in_Qt_for_Symbian"]here[/URL].

Did it work ?
Hi,
partially.
The landscape mode switch works - but the stupid action button and the title bar still are displayed!
I forgot to add something: the MainWindow is shown as set up in the .ui file.
Use showFullscreen instead of showMaximized in your main.cpp
Already found it, thx!
To add: the main.cpp does NOT seem to get edited. So there is no risk of a fight between Carbide and you.
I'm trying almost the same thing but ib Carbide,C++.
I want my app to launch and stay in landscape mode till the user exits the app.
Any idea guys....i'm clueless...
thnks in advance...
See the code below, from "markboost". It's all you need. (Well, not quite. also #include <AknAppUi.h> and add libs avkon, cone, and eiksrv to your PRO file.)
