I obviously have some problems understanding the documentation.
My app is just the what Xcode gives me for iOS Master-Detail.
There are MasterViewController (UITableViewController) and DetailViewController : UIViewController
I just created a SplitViewController : UISplitViewController, which implements just one method: supportedInterfaceOrientations and now everything works as intended.
So: what is the point of the checkboxes and Info.plist?
Anyway. Thanks to your help I have it now working. Thanks a lot!
Kind regards,
Gerriet.
