How tom set up dual monitor, with one 4k and one 1440p

[SebastianHELP]

I have a 4k 28" monitor, and a 1440 27" monitor. When I plugged both of them in, the 1440 monitor had really large icons, when I tried to adjust the icons for the 1440 monitor the icon size for the 4k monitor become extremely small, so now I'm stuck with good icon size on the 4k, and huge icon size on the 1440, but the text size on both monitors is extremely small, I've also noticed problems with the resolution and size of programs when dragging them from the 4k to the 1440, is there any way I can individually set icon / text size to each monitor ? cause atm they both get affected when I try to change it on one monitor.+

Did you recently build this? If so, are the graphics drivers installed? Does this happen in clone or extended display mode?

If you run extended mode, it will allow both monitors to run at their native resolutions.

Yes, extended mode, and then you can adjust the DPI for 100% 125% 150% One of those settings may help aleviate the icons issues when moving between.
