So I love the 4K display on my 15" Spectre Vega, but it's mostly pointless and I just wish they did a 1080p option.
I've lived with it running at 4K using 200% scaling for a week or so, but I just can’t' carry on. The majority of apps I use, including Chrome, and Outlook have some really annoying layout issues. This is made 100x worse when you connect up an ultra-wide monitor that you want at 100% display scaling. Even if you disable the laptop's 4K display, windows just gets utterly confused.
You get margins round windows that should be maximized, 200% sized file open dialogs, scroll bars, tooltips and other elements. It's just horrendous really.
I've finally given up and set my laptop to 1080p and I've just breathed a sigh of relief, everything looks and works properly now.
But I'm gutted because I'm paying for a 4K screen, that I can't enjoy and losing out on extra battery life!
