I have an iPad app which works great for iOS versions earlier than 6.
My root view controller displays a list, and when you click on any item in the list, the root view controller presents a modal view controller to show the item's details.
The problem is, my root view controller has different layouts in landscape and portrait, when there is no modal view controller present, it updates the layout no problem at all when the orientation changes, but when covered by modal view controller, it doesn't update, and this only happens on iOS 6. So when you click on an item, then the modal view controller comes up covering the entire screen, then you rotate the device, and then dismiss the modal view controller, the root view controller is still in old orientation layout, which is really annoying.
I am well aware of the change that in iOS 6 shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation is deprecated and any view controllers covered by a fullscreen modal view controller won't receive rotation events like they did in iOS earlier than 6. I did what was suggested in this thread: iOS 6 Rotation issue - No rotation from Presented Modal View Controller, which is manually pass rotation events from the modal view controller to the view controller behind it, but the view controller behind it still doesn't update its layout. Any solutions?
