How can I find out device orientation? Should I use scene.gravity() to get gravity and then try to transform it into orientation?

Run this and then tap the X to close the scene... The results will be printed on the console.

import scene

class MyScene(scene.Scene):
    def __init__(self):
        scene.run(self)

    def setup(self):
        # This will be called before the first frame is drawn.
        print(self.bounds, self.isLandscape(), self.scale(), scene.get_screen_scale())

    def scale(self):
        _, _, x, y = self.bounds
        landscape = self.isLandscape()
        x /= 1024 if landscape else 768
        y /= 768 if landscape else 1024
        return scene.Point(x, y)

    def isLandscape(self):
        return self.bounds.w > self.bounds.h

MyScene()
