True Kenneth, - but in all cases, it would be good if anything related to orientation (Media Query, accelerometer, etc.) at least had a common holistic way of defining "what is up" ~ (x,y,z) = (0,1,0) or so . and if that *changes* if the different levels of orientation (device lock, window, etc.) somehow auto-rotates on device rotate or it follows the HW accelerometer and couldn't care less about pixels on screen. Someone should - seriously - be the "holistic owner of all things orientation for Web". - Lars On Tue, Nov 5, 2013 at 12:23 PM, Kenneth Rohde Christiansen < kenneth.christiansen@gmail.com> wrote: > They are somewheat different things.
