The problem isn't just scaling between two different resolutions, it's the inconsistencies (yes, apps don't take advantage but that's not the only issue). For example, if I want 200% 4k (my monitor) and 100% 1080p (my 2 side monitors), I have to choose between ultra-tiny text on my 4k with regular text or blurry text on my 1080ps.

Is that Windows 10? On my Windows 10 Ent desktop I'm able to set the scale factor of each display independently.

This is Windows 10. How do I enable that option?

Erm...click on the display you want to change (1,2,3) and simply drag the slider?
