Description

How to reproduce:
Visit the example page on a mobile device (I used an iPhone). Turn on the VR mode and tilt the phone to landscape mode. The VR mode is started, but instead of having a fullscreen filled with the canvas, the scene stucks at the position it was embedded at.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the embedded VR mode from the provided example page on an iPhone using Safari, then trace the mobile landscape transition and fullscreen scene positioning in A-Frame 0.5.0. Done means the VR canvas fills the screen and the scene is repositioned correctly after entering VR mode.
