Bugs while working with External Monitors
Hi michaelsh ,
When you use a high-DPI device such as a Surface Pro 3, Surface Pro 4, or Surface Book together with external monitors, you experience the following issues:
-
Elements such as applications, the taskbar, icons, toolbars, text, and dialog boxes appear to be fuzzy.
-
Elements are too large or too small compared to the rest of the desktop.
-
Blurry text appears in applications or in the Windows interface.
Although these symptoms may be seen on a single monitor, they're more common when you use multiple monitors that vary in display resolution.
Solution:
Match screen resolutions Consider deploying monitors that have complementary screen resolutions.
When you use multiple monitors (including when you dock or connect to remote screens), a greater difference in the resolution between the native device and external device is more likely to cause the issues to occur. For more information, see the following OneDrive presentation:More details: Windows scaling issues for high-DPI devices
If I have misunderstood your meaning, please provide more details with a screenshoot.
