There're several ways to achieve this.

1. Use the . shortcut (right, the dot). This will rotate the board.

2. If you prefer the mouse, you can use the button in the second icon 
bar next to the little hammer which will rotate the board.

3. If you often have games of that kind from the same player (ie. you) 
you can set "My player names". (Options / Chessboard / My Playernames) 
to set the player you prefer to play "upwards". Scid will then 
automatically rotate the board that way as soon as you load a game.
