Layout change when orientation changes in Android Fragments

Question

please suggest a solution.

When i rotate my fragment it should change in to landscape mode and to display another layout.But screen is not rotating to landscape.

My code blow:

 <activity
        android:name=".activites.MainActivity"
        android:launchMode="singleInstance"
        android:configChanges="keyboardHidden|screenLayout|screenSize|orientation"
        />

This is main layout called dashboard and now it is in portrait mode:

 @Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {
     View  view=View.inflate(getContext(), R.frag_dashboard,null);
     changeview= (ShimmerTextView)view.findViewById(R.id.changeview); 
     return view;
}

when i rotate the screen this fragment changed to landscape mode and set another layout, and prayer_times is the new layout.

   @Override
public void onConfigurationChanged(Configuration newConfig) {
    super.onConfigurationChanged(newConfig);

    // Checks the orientation of the screen
    if (newConfig.orientation == Configuration.ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE) {
        Toast.makeText(getContext(), "landscape", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
        view=View.inflate(getContext(), R.layout.prayer_times,null);

    }
}

and i create layout_land for prayer_times

If your fragment has no issue of reloading when orientation change you can simply reload.

Add two layout with same name in layout and layout-land folders.

This will show correct oriented layout when load, for change layout when device rotate add following in onConfigarationChanged method inside fragment itself.

@Override
public void onConfigurationChanged(Configuration newConfig){
    super.onConfigurationChanged(newConfig);
    if (newConfig.orientation == Configuration.ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE || newConfig.orientation == Configuration.ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT){
        try {
            FragmentTransaction ft = getFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
            if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= 26) {
             ft.setReorderingAllowed(false);
            }
            ft.detach(this).attach(this).commit();
        } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }
}
