yes, indeed. Ok, so scratch checking the preconditions. If we assume the following invariant: > `.lock()` must support all orientations in one way or another, even if those orientations get mapped to something else (e.g., landscape-secondary -> landscape-primary, natural -> portrait-primary). Then that only requires a single check: ".canProbablyLock" (boolean) which would be: "they're nothing preventing user agent from attempting to lock the screen orientation". On desktop platforms, this would return `false`, because there it is known to not bother even trying. On other platforms, it wold return yes - but `.lock()` might still fail for a number of reasons. -- Reply to this email directly or view it on GitHub: https://github.com/w3c/screen-orientation/issues/206#issuecomment-1293118323 You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.
