    I have an Asus R1F Tablet PC, that I used docked with an external monitor when I am at home. Tablet PC screen is off, and External monitor is the primary and only display.

    I would like to be able to use the Tablet screen as a simple pen tablet while working/viewing on the external monitor. It works fine, except for the orientation.

    When the tablet is docked (cables going out at the back), its screen is actually rotated 180 deg compared to the external monitor. So pen movements are reversed.

    I can rotate the tablet, (cables coming out in the front), but this is not very practical.

    In order for it to work, I need to have the monitor and the tablet digitizer rotated 180 deg from each other. This means either be able to rotate the digitizer 180 deg without rotating the image on the monitor, or rotate the monitor image 180 deg without rotating the digitizer.

    Unfortunately, when I rotate the screen with the Intel graphics property panel, it rotates the digitizer, and there is no way on the Wacom control panel to rotate the digitizer.

    Does anyone know a way like registry settings that would either rotate the digitizer only, or the monitor only ?

    Thanks
