    Hi,
    I need to change it below 100%. You said in 1:16 it could be achived. How?
    Advanced scaling settings are allowed only 100-500% and none works for what I need. Is there a way to reduce scale screen area in windows?
    Thks

      I found reading forums that could only be achieved using video card proper settings with software app.

      @@georgemcaldeira5632 Yes unfortunately it's not possible to lower it below 100% in Windows without something third party. I don't recall saying it in the video either, what I meant was you can lower the percentage e.g. from 150 down to 100 to make it smaller.

      Not in the Windows settings unfortunately. You may be able to depending on your graphics card, e.g. if you have Nvidia then change settings in the Nvidia control panel

    is there a way to set it to under 100%? I need to use a big monitor but my graphics card can't run on 4k, so I need to make the display smaller so the ppi isn't as bad..

    • @TropicalTech

      Unfortunately there isn't a way to set it to less than 100% in Windows. I'm not sure why to be honest as it would make sense. It may be possible with certain software but I have no experience with any that I can recommend.
