“Sensor” emulation changes to landscape when set to portrait in edit mode

Repro steps

  1. Open up Roblox Studio
  2. Make a new place
  3. Go to test > emulator. Set to iPhone 5
  4. Set to “Fit to window” (May be optional)
  5. Set ScreenOrientation to Sensor
  6. Rotation the screen to portrait
  7. Play solo

Expected behavior: The screen stays in portrait mode
Actual behavior: The screen swaps back to landscape mode

As a developer, this is annoying because I want to be testing portrait mode, and I don’t want to swap to a random orientation even though it defaults to sensor.

This is a minor bug/UX issue, but it’s annoying enough to warrant a 30 minute fix imo.

Thanks!
