X220T, Multiple Monitors, Independent Rotation

#1 Post by drs » Sat Mar 24, 2012 12:35 am

I am trying to set up an X220T such that it sits in a dock with an external monitor as the primary, but with the tablet screen open up so I can make notes in OneNote. This works save for one problem, which is that because of the direction of the dock, one of the screens is upside down. If I push the rotate button so that the tablet screen faces the right way, both screens rotate and the main monitor is upside down.

The only "solution" I can come up with is to mount my main monitor upside down, but that is far from ideal. Further, I'd like to be able to rotate the external screen 90 degrees with the tablet 180 degrees. Any suggestion on how to control the screen rotations independently? The only tool I find is the Intel Graphics control panel, but it won't let you control rotation with multiple monitors, only with a single.
