New issue 291 by addy...@gmail.com: Keyboard gets cut off on iPad with
rotation lock on
http://code.google.com/p/mobileterminal/issues/detail?id=291

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Get an iPad with iOS 5.
2. Rotate it to landscape and lock its rotation.
3. Open MobileTerminal.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The keyboard would always come up properly on iOS 4.3.1 for me. Now, on iOS
5, it gets stuck at the bottom of the screen while the auto rotation occurs.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Version 592 from the iJailbreak repo, on iOS 5 on my iPad 1

Please provide any additional information below.

This is happening because of the rotation lock automatically rotating from
portrait to landscape, due to there not being any iPad-sized default images
(Default-Portrait.png and Default-Landscape.png). It doesn't happen if I
unlock the rotation before opening the app and manually rotate the device
when the keyboard appears.

I apologise, I meant revision 520 above, not 592.

Similar problem with iOS 5 on an iPhone 3Gs. As it rotates to
landscape, the keyboard gets scrunched to the bottom of the screen so
only the QWERTY line of the keyboard is visible. However if I wait for
portrait to load completely, then rotate to landscape, it looks fine.

I tried testing this with the simulator, but was not able to reproduce it
(couldn't figure out how to stop it from rotating back on startup). If
anyone can reproduce this in the simulator, please report back here.

Fixed it! It just needed to know the supported orientations in Info.plist.
I also added default images for the iPad screen.

Has anyone added my patch yet? It has worked perfectly for me in the past
few weeks.
