Separate portrait and landscape views

[Dog2puppy]

Hi. I recently started using Pythonista and was wondering if it’s possible to have separate views for portrait and landscape and to switch between them dynamically on the fly.

@Dog2puppy Hello, welcome here.

As usual, I'm not sure I correctly understand. Is this what you want?

import ui

class MyView(ui.View):
	
	def __init__(self):
		self.background_color = 'white'
		
		vp = ui.View(name='portrait')
		vp.flex = 'WH'
		vp.border_width = 4
		vp.border_color = 'red'
		self.add_subview(vp)
		vp.add_subview(ui.Label(frame=(10,10,100,32),text = vp.name))
		
		vl = ui.View(name='landscape')
		vl.flex = 'WH'
		vl.frame = self.bounds
		vl.border_width = 4
		vl.border_color = 'blue'
		self.add_subview(vl)
		vl.add_subview(ui.Label(frame=(10,10,100,32),text = vl.name))
		
	def layout(self):
		self['portrait'].hidden  = self.width > self.height
		self['landscape'].hidden = self.width < self.height
		
vp = MyView()
vp.present()
