Enable auto-rotation in QWebView

jsmanrique

Perhaps it has been answered before, but I have tried a simple WebView PySide sample:

@import sys

from PySide.QtCore import *
from PySide.QtGui import *
from PySide.QtWebKit import *
from PySide.QtOpenGL import *

create Qt app

app = QApplication(sys.argv)

create webview

mWebView = QWebView()
mWebView.setRenderHints(QPainter.SmoothPixmapTransform)

settings

mSettings = mWebView.settings()
mSettings.setAttribute(QWebSettings.LocalStorageEnabled, True)
mSettings.setAttribute(QWebSettings.OfflineStorageDatabaseEnabled, True)
mSettings.setAttribute(QWebSettings.OfflineWebApplicationCacheEnabled, True)
mSettings.enablePersistentStorage(path=sys.path[0])

load url and show

mWebView.load(QUrl('http://www.nokia.com'))
mWebView.show()

enter the loop

sys.exit(app.exec_())@

But, when I try it on a N9x0 device, it doesn't rotate... I supose that it needs to use qt-mobility pack, but... how to enabling auto-rotation?

Thank you very much and best regards

I have changed to qml instead of pure python gui definition. Now I use this qml file, and it seems to work as expected:
@import QtQuick 1.0
import QtWebKit 1.0
import com.nokia.meego 1.0

Window {
id: rootWindow
WebView {
id: webView
anchors.fill: parent

settings.javascriptEnabled: true
settings.localStorageDatabaseEnabled: true
settings.offlineStorageDatabaseEnabled: true
settings.offlineWebApplicationCacheEnabled: true

url: 'http://www.nokia.com'
}
}@
