Description

[Derek Harris [:DerekH] - Dont need info. Last day 6/5/15]

Attachment: Landscape App Logcat

Description:
Landscape only apps will attempt to be viewed in portrait view from task manager. This leaves them cut off at the top of the app display, and the rest of the card is filled in by black space


Repro Steps:
1) Update a Flame to 20150514010203
2) Open Markteplace> Search Cut The Rope
3) Download Cut the Rope> Open Cut the Rope
4) Long press home button to enter task manager (Card View)


Actual:
The landscape only app is trying to display in portrait and is cut off


Expected:
The app is displaying as a landscape in the cardview. (essentially a sideways app display)

We should start the regression window at the landing for bug 1120974. It should be working there? 
Cut the Rope is a slippery one to get right as it does its own orientation detection and rotates itself with a transform (from a setTimeout). See bug 1033652. So it would be good to reproduce this on other landscape apps - and not assume they all behave this way.

Issue appears to occur due to changes made in bug 1107139

Sam, can you take a look at this please? This might have been caused by the work done for bug 1107139.

Comment 6

[Sam Foster [:sfoster] (he/him)]

bug 1107139 changed the timing such that we dont block for as long to show the task manager. Particularly for Cut the Rope which rotates itself in a setTimeout, I can see how we might get a different screenshot. Does this issue show up in the same way for other landscape apps - as mentioned in Comment #2?

Attachment: Screenshot - Landscape app comparison

In latest 3.0 nightly, landscape apps appear to have multiple different behaviors possible. "Hex Race" app is scaled and rotated to portrait when in card view. "Ninja Turtles Donatello" app has most of screen scaled and rotated to portrait mode in card view, but the top banner is not scaled properly and appears cut off screen. "Chrono Cash" is rotated to portrait orientation in card view, but scaled improperly so that it appears anchored to top of screen. "Cut the Rope" still shows as rotated to portrait mode in card view, but is not rescaled resulting in a cut off image.

At no time while in app are any of the above apps shown in portrait orientation.

Thanks for that, its very helpful. It does appear that screenshots normally get the correct aspect ratio, so we should be able to detect and rotate to fit the task manager better. They are probably not at all synchronized with orientation changes though - fixing that would help a lot I think. I can look into this.

[Gregor Wagner [:gwagner]]

Removing the blocking flag since user impact is minimal. My testing showed this only happened 1 out of 10 times.

Still watching this bug but not currently working on it.
