MBP + external monitor : alternative to "scaled" display to have smaller apps? I am facing a lot of small annoyance with my external display (4k, 27&quot; benq, T3 connection) like :
it wakes up with the wrong resolution, the mouse feels incredibly slow (it looks like the speed is also &quot;scaled&quot;) and some application just struggle to display higher resolution (namely jetbrains products).
So, I moved back to the standard resolution… but everything is too big now. I've reduced the zoom in some apps, but the menus remain huge.
So, are there any solutions (apps or whatnot) to either fix the &quot;scaled&quot; display issues… or to keep the standard resolution, but having slightly smaller apps ?
Thanks a ton…
You don't say exactly what resolutions you're using, but if you use the native 4K resolution without scaling, then that will display everything as small as possible.
The whole point of using a 'scaled' display is to keep the clarity of the high-pixel density, while enlarging the screen objects, such as buttons, text, etc.
