Detectors placed at interaction points of various colliders contain solenoids producing longitudinal magnetic fields which linearly couple the horizontal and the vertical betatron motions, x-y coupling. Compensation the linear coupling is usually required in order to avoid a loss of luminosity. In this note I shall describe a complementary scheme of compensating the linear coupling by employing skew-quadrupoles.
