Currently all views on Sailfish and Ubuntu are still fixed to portrait only, but all need to become available in landscape as well.

Some things which need to be done:

  • Convert all lists/menus to grids with multiple columns
  • Investigate a way to show item details (long click on browser pages)
  • Show gesture pad and buttons side by side (gesture pad on the left, buttons on the right, or other way around, possibly using a setting?)
  • Rework now playing page
  • Possibly add more information to controls dock

On Ubuntu the NowPlaying page already supports landscape, but rotation is disabled as a global app setting.

Also note, landscape mode does not necessarily mean a grid view is required. The switching between list/grid has more to do with the size of the display.

My plan is to "make this work" for the Jolla tablet. But I'll most likely hold back on adding landscape support till the SDK for Sailfish 2.0 is released. So I only have to build it once, instead of making it for the phone, and hoping it will also work for the tablet.

Ubuntu should be done independent of this (and I can't make it work for both). So I'll rename this issue to Sailfish and you could create your own then.

Why is it necessary to convert lists to multicolumn grids? On a phone a landscape mode would help to read longer names of tracks that do not fit on a phone screen. It is counterproductive to lose the width by splitting it.
