Customizing orientation

Setting orientation for all in-app messages

To set a fixed orientation for all in-app messages, you can set the supportedOrientationMask property on ABKInAppMessageUIController. Add the following code after your app’s call to startWithApiKey:inApplication:withLaunchOptions::

OBJECTIVE-C
swift

// Set fixed in-app message orientation to portrait.
// Use UIInterfaceOrientationMaskLandscape to display in-app messages in landscape
id<ABKInAppMessageUIControlling> inAppMessageUIController = [Appboy sharedInstance].inAppMessageController.inAppMessageUIController;
((ABKInAppMessageUIController *)inAppMessageUIController).supportedOrientationMask = UIInterfaceOrientationMaskPortrait;

// Set fixed in-app message orientation to portrait
// Use .landscape to display in-app messages in landscape
if let controller = Appboy.sharedInstance()?.inAppMessageController.inAppMessageUIController as? ABKInAppMessageUIController {
  controller.supportedOrientationMask = .portrait
}

Following this, all in-app messages will be displayed in the supported orientation, regardless of device orientation. Note that the device orientation must also be supported by the in-app message’s orientation property for the message to display.

Setting orientation per in-app message

You may alternatively set orientation on a per-message basis. To do this, set an in-app message delegate. Then, in your beforeInAppMessageDisplayed: delegate method, set the orientation property on the ABKInAppMessage:

OBJECTIVE-C
swift

// Set inAppMessage orientation to portrait
inAppMessage.orientation = ABKInAppMessageOrientationPortrait;

// Set inAppMessage orientation to landscape
inAppMessage.orientation = ABKInAppMessageOrientationLandscape;

  // Set inAppMessage orientation to portrait
  inAppMessage.orientation = ABKInAppMessageOrientation.portrait

  // Set inAppMessage orientation to landscape
  inAppMessage.orientation = ABKInAppMessageOrientation.landscape
