i have been searching this site for an answer but i cant find one . my android app isnt swapping from portrait to landscape in my emulator it just shows a sideways portrait screen. I have made a layout and layout-land folder with matching xml names and so on . but it doesnt seem to pick up on the layout-land versions. i do not have an onConfig() function or anything so i was wondering if anyone can help???
mainpage.xml layout-land
