Apps Disable Auto-Rotation with Eclipse - Help please

[leroytrolley]

Hi guys and girls.

Can anybody tell me if it is possible to code an app so that it does not rotate if/when the user rotates their device. I have built an app that is designed for portrait view only. When it is flips to landscape, it gets distorted. I have apps on my android that do not rotate when I try to rotate my device.

I am using Eclipse to make my app. I'm hoping it is something that I need to add to the manifest, but i am a novice.

Many thanks
