Problem when locking screen orientation in Symbian app

[mkfnx]

Hi, I'm having a problem when trying to lock the orientation of my app to portrait mode. It works almost everytime but when I launch the app with the phone in landscape mode the app doesn't get the correct dimensions and I end up with something like what is shown in the image.

Any idea of what could be the problem and how to solve it?

I'm using Qt 4.7.4 and Qt Quick 1.1.

I have created the app with the Qt Creators wizard so my main.qml contains a PageStackWindow component
I use the following lines in main.cpp to lock the apps orientation:

@QmlApplicationViewer viewer;
viewer.setOrientation(QmlApplicationViewer::ScreenOrientationLockPortrait);
(...)
viewer.showExpanded();
@

I 've tested the app in my E7 an also in a N8 from the RDA, both with the same result.

Hi, I know that I am responding on older post but i have the same problem on my Nokia 603 (FP1) any solution for that?

Yes there is a solution, I found that it is a reported bug https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTCOMPONENTS-1201

So I asked in the bug repor page and they told me this:

bq. You should be able to circumvent the issue by locking the orientation using the Page.orientationLock property ( http://doc.qt.nokia.com/qtquick-components-symbian-1.1/qml-page.html ), instead of locking the orientation using C++ API:s.
Or if you are not using PageStack in the application you can use screen.allowedOrientations ( http://doc.qt.nokia.com/qtquick-components-symbian-1.1/qml-screen.html ).

It worked fine for me.
