ScreenRotation does not work m1 macbook air

Same here on 1.2; still freezes on rotate. Didn't see this mentioned in the release notes, however was hoping it made it in.

Same here, it was very nice to receive a notification message from Jakub about the new release - thank you! However, was quite disappointed when noticed the screen-rotation for M1 is still not working and in H section i.e. known issues which makes my two vertical monitors unusable.

I'm now starting to seriously consider dropping DL completely from my setup by replacing MBA M1 with a Mac mini M1 and connecting natively via USB-C 2 x 49 inch ultra wide monitors instead so I don't rely on DL anymore as otherwise it's months of waiting for updates to drivers to be able to use my extra screens and get work done quicker.

It's been 4 months since previous release and was really hoping to be able to use my monitors but it turns out would have to wait another 3-6 month..? It's a shame but understand they're very busy at DL although delays on their side is affecting my productivity in a bad way hence time to think about the change (as I did with MacBook Pro 16 with 4 USB-C ports and native screens support - unfortunately the machine was badly designed in terms of thermals + Intel drop/M1 release = forced me to go back to constant and never ending struggle with a simple thing such as connecting 3 extra screens for not demanding office use).

Same here sign me up for any beta. Do you guys have any kind of eta for this feature?

This would help me decide if I shall sell my current multi display setup or not.

All the best

Hello everyone,

We are working with a third party for the enablement of rotation on M1.
This is on the top of the list, with improved clamshell behaviour.
The dedicated FAQ will be updated when we are able to comment further

Kind regards,
