How do I change an activity to portrait mode using Android Studio?

Easy enough with tabs in Eclipse but cannot find anything in Adnroid Studio.

Add this into the activity declaration in AndroidManifest.xml : android:screenOrientation="portrait" >

example:

            <activity
            android:name=".SignUpActivity"
            android:label="@string/title_activity_sign_up"
            android:screenOrientation="portrait" >
           </activity>
