Lock the orientation to landscape in a fragment-CodePudding

My app has navigation set up and it is a single activity app. Fragments are linked like this:

MainFragment -> GameFragment

MainFragment -> GameSetupFragment -> GameFragment

What I need to accomplish: Depending on settings, GameFragment sometimes should be locked in the landscape mode. When I did this in an activity, I wrote a line of code:

setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE);

What can I do if I use fragments? Is there a way to tell the fragment owner (i.e. the activity) to switch the orientation?

CodePudding user response：

Assuming that you know that your fragment is attached to the activity, you can call requireActivity() in the fragment to get your activity:

requireActivity().setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE)
