I don't like single leg propstands as the bike can easily topple over or get bumped by a passing pedestrian. Much prefer to lean the bike against a solid object. What I do to stop the front wheel spinning round and toppling the bike, is to put something through the front wheel and round the forks so the wheel can't rotate. Sometimes I use a strip of industrial Velcro that also doubles as a trouser leg clip, and if wearing shorts I use a cheap cable lock through the wheel and round the down tube.
