Labs Q&A Fall 2013
- Has anyone run into a problem where the emulator refuses to rotate (at all, never mind the layout of the running app)? I tried Ctrl+f11/f12, f11/f12, but none of them work. And I don't have a number pad on my laptop to try 7/9. --Andrew
- I pressed the HOME key (number pad) on my laptop and the emulator's orientation changed from portrait to landscape. (Peter)
- Figured it out - it was already used by the xfce window manager to switch to desktop 11/12, just cleared that binding and now it works as it should with the emulator. --Andrew

Assignment 1 Q&A
- Is the relationship between schedule and student/teacher 1:1? (ie: to delete a schedule you can just delete the account that schedule is attached to) -- Dennis
- The assignment specifies we include "validfrom" and "validto" dates. This implies that we could have several schedules for each student/teacher. eg. one for summer, another for fall, etc. However, this being our first assignment I think it would be reasonable to have exactly one timetable per student/teacher. We would then use the "validfrom" and "validto" dates to tell us when the schedule has become outdated.... John
