Landscape default?

I bought the N69ML to use as a music score reader - the e-book paper-like screen would be great for reading music in sunshine outdoors. However all my music pdfs are in landscape format. Therefore I need to place the device landscape on the music stand and have it show the music in its original size and format. The Onyx does not automatically re-orient the screen when placed sideways, and the built-in e-book's landscape function is not available when the music library app that I've installed is running.

Is there a way to set the screen orientation to landscape as a default? I don't want to read books in this machine - I just want to use the music library app (Mobilesheets) to display my music pages and take advantage of the paperwhite screen.

Thanks,
Ray

Did you try orientation-setting apps, like this one?

I didn't realise there were such apps, afainber - I should have guessed there might be! I've installed the one you mention and it works fine with my music library app.

Many thanks,
Ray
