Android newbie: switch between landscape mode and portrait mode?

Create two layout files one for portrait and one for landscape. Place these layout-port and layout-land respectively. You'll have to handle screen orientation if you want to save the state of the screen.

You need to set up 2 different layouts for the activity, one in portrait ("normal") mode, one in landscape mode. This implies to not use TabActivity. Put landscape_tab.

Xml in layout-land folder inside res folder (res/layout-land) Put portrait_tab. Xml in layout-port folder inside res folder (res/layout-port) OfCourse you have to create layout-land and layout-port folder in res directory manually Your Solution is here android:orientation="vertical" does not work for TabWidget cheers :).

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
