["olivier pepin (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-6026?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14010582#comment-14010582 ] 

olivier pepin commented on CB-6026:
-----------------------------------

<preference name="Orientation" value="default" /> has no effect and is still ignored on cordova  ios 3.4.1 (both iphone and ipad). 

A workaround is to manually update the App plist :
<key>UISupportedInterfaceOrientations</key>
    <array>
      <string>UIInterfaceOrientationPortrait</string>
      <string>UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeLeft</string>
      <string>UIInterfaceOrientationPortraitUpsideDown</string>
      <string>UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeRight</string>
    </array>
    <key>UISupportedInterfaceOrientations~ipad</key>
    <array>
      <string>UIInterfaceOrientationPortrait</string>
      <string>UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeLeft</string>
      <string>UIInterfaceOrientationPortraitUpsideDown</string>
      <string>UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeRight</string>
    </array>

There is a simple solution in phonegap to override the plist from the config.xml http://phonegap.com/blog/2014/01/30/customizing-your-android-manifest-and-ios-property-list-on-phonegap-build/ but this apparently does not work on cordova ...
