Hi @evaz,

If you’re looking to open only 1 PDF at a time with the conditions you mention, I recommend you to read this article about placeholders.

Don’t be so sure something is not doable, there’s often a way with software :slight_smile:

In your case, here are some steps to lock the orientation of the opened PDFs

  • Put the Documents assets in the scene (= outside of a collection), with a Free or Pinnable container
  • Uncheck the “allow rotate” property
  • Put them back in the collection (ex: asset grid) on which you have the “tap to open” behavior
  • and voilà! the opened item will not rotate anymore.
