Text too small on lower resolution monitor in a dual display setup
The Next CEO of Stack OverflowDisplay resolution in duplicate monitorconfig dual monitors with quite different resolutionScale 1080p screen to 720p - everything is too smallChange GRUB text size based on resolutionXrandr gone crazy with dual monitor setupDual monitor display problemHow to set different scaling on multi monitor (3 monitors)ubuntu different scale for different monitorsHow to configure 200% scale on 4k monitor, but 100% scale on additional 1080p monitorsWrong resolution on secondary display
I put two monitor side-by-side and one has 4K resolution while the other one is 1080p. If I set the scale to 2X the text looks normal on the 4K monitor but everything looks too big on the 1080p monitor which makes it unusable. If I don't scale, the text on the 4K monitor will look too small. Since Ubuntu does not allow you to use different scale on different monitors, how can I solve this?

After tweaking xrandr for a few hours with no luck, I gave it up. But later on I found a solution which is pretty simple. This works if you have a Geforce graphic card and use Nvidia X Server Settings.
- Install Nvidia graphic card driver and Nvidia X Server
- Set the monitor with lower resolution as follows: (in the link)
The idea is to set ViewPortIn to the resolution of the higher display, and then set ViewPortOut to the actual physical resolution.
