Can the accelerometer tell you which way the device is being held?

IntelligentDesigner

I want to make a set of rules that do things differently depending on the orientation. There must be a way to act on that information...

jonmulcahy

since version 0.8.5 there are rules that know which orientation the device is in:

device orientation: Landscape left, landscape right, portrait or portrait upside down.

IntelligentDesigner

Thanks Mulcahy, so how do I say the rule?

I find only Devices>Accelerometer>(X, Y, Z) in the attribute browser...

I don't have it in front of me, but it's more like

If attribute device.Orientation = Landscape
do this

If attribute device.Orientation = Portrait Upsidedown
do this

IntelligentDesigner

Ah. Attribute Devices>Screen>DeviceOrientation is

Landscape Left/Right, Portrait

Thanks, Bro!
