How to know the orientation of phone screen!

[manish.agarw]

Hi Guys :

I want to know the orientation of screen i.e portrait aur landscape....

i have used Orientation();API it returns automatic orientation.....so i am not able to figure out the exact one...


Second, i want to know that on N97 mobile how do i figure out that keyboard is in focusable mode...i.e we flip the phone and slide also....


Regards

HandleScreenDeviceChangedL() would do your solution i think.

HandleScreenDeviceChangedL() will be called by the system when the screen mode changes. To check which mode it is in (Flip open or Flip closed), put the following code in your implementation:

CWsScreenDevice& screenDevice = *(iCoeEnv->ScreenDevice());
TBool isFlipOpen = (screenDevice.CurrentScreenMode() == 0) ?
ETrue : EFalse;

Finally, you have to make sure that the window server notifies your application when the screen mode changes. To do that, you have to add the following to your ConstructL() method:

RWindowGroup& rootWinGroup = iCoeEnv->RootWin();
rootWinGroup.EnableScreenChangeEvents();
