    Dual Monitors Different "Sizes"


    I have two 27" monitors that are are of the same physical size but of different resolutions - 1080p and 1440p. These are being run through an RTX3060Ti so max resolution supported is 7680x4320, way above what I am displaying.When I open display and set them to their native resolutions they show as different size boxes. This creates two main issues for me:Screen alignment is out. With the digital tops aligned the digital bottom of the 1080p monitor is roughly 1/4 up from the digital bottom of the 1440p. The physical top and bottom are in line. Dual screen background pictures are all sorts of mi

  2. Dual monitor, Dual mouse??

    Hello,

    Please share this information to assist you better.

    • How have you setup dual monitors?
    • Are you referring to use 2 different mouse/keyboard with the dual monitor setup?
    If yes, the mouse or keyboard may function same as one another. Since, it has to be connected to single PC/tower.

    However, setting up 2 different mouse/keyboard with the Dual- monitor setup, it may not function separately for each monitor.

    Let us know the status of the issue. We will assist you further.

  3. Dual monitors with different DPI (different resolution but same physical size)

    Hi,

    I have dual monitor setup. Two monitors are the same size, but very different in resolution. To be precise, display 1 is 1440x900 (100% scale) and display 2 is 2880x1800 retina (200% scale). So they are the same size, but first display is twice as high in
    DPI as the second one.

    Because of that, when I move my mouse pointer from display 1 to display 2, it's "stuck" on the edge until I move it to the bottom (depends on the layout).

    Ability to change the "scale" of every individual monitor on the layout (without affecting it's resolution or element/font size) solves the problem:

    Is there any other way to solve it? If no, can this feature be added to Windows 10?

    Dual Monitors Different "Sizes"

    different displays on dual monitors

    I am running dual BenQ monitors from my surface pro 4 dock.

    Despite identical setting on the monitors themselves, the displays are different.

    Its very had to read text right hand monitor.

    changing the cables doesn't make a difference.

    Help!
