Dear colleagues,
I'm using Win10 on Parallels on a Macbook Pro (16"), to which two identical montitors are connected via a CalDigit TS3 docking station.
I've noticed that the text scaling factor is different on both monitors (seemingly 125% on the first, and 100% on the second). If I grab a Win10 window on one of the monitors and move it to the second, it will change its size (and the text size) in the process.

Dear colleagues,
I'm using Win10 on Parallels on a Macbook Pro (16"), to which two identical montitors are connected via a CalDigit TS3 docking station.
I've noticed that the text scaling factor is different on both monitors (seemingly 125% on the first, and 100% on the second). If I grab a Win10 window on one of the monitors and move it to the second, it will change its size (and the text size) in the process.
I can't seem to find out how to have the same scaling factor on both monitors. As far as I can see, I can only set one value.
I'd be happy if anyone could point me in the right direction.
Many thanks in advance, kind regards Erik ▲ Collapse

In this case you obviously have to apply to CalDigit TS3 docking station manufacturer. It doesn't matter from which device it receives the video-signal, Mac, Win, book, desktop or even a network. It matters in which resolution(s) it can transform it and on how many monitors the picture can be reproduced.
Good luck

I don't think this is related to the docking station.

Thanks, but I don't think so. Only Win10 windows are affected. MacOS windows look identical on both screens.
This must be either a Win10 or a Parallels setting.
In the meantime, I have found an option in the Win10 settings to display windows larger on the main screen, but changing this setting doesn't affect the behaviour I described.
