The orientation mode issue in the viewer

I created a portrait mode game. However, when I put it on the android viewer, it becomes landscape mode! A part of the game screen is shown on the top of the phone screen, the other parts can not be seen. I can not find any settings on creator or viewer for the orientation change. What should I do to maintain the portrait mode on the viewer?

    The viewer does not respect orientation. Most devices have a setting that can lock the orientation. I usually use that.

    I did lock the phone screen to portrait mode, but the viewer automatically changes the game to landscape. I don't understand that everything are in portrait mode( the game design, the locked phone screen, the viewer), but after the game is loaded in viewer, the viewer suddenly changes to landscape mode. Why? BTW, iPhone viewer is correctly oriented. This is only the android issue.

    Check the scene orientation in GS. It's under the scene attributes -> autorotate. You need to change it in each scene of your game.
