I have the same issue while using Ubuntu 17.10, gnome-control-center 3.26.2
I'm attempting to have my laptop monitor (HP Spectrum 4k monitor) with scale at 200% which works correctly. And then scale my external monitors to 100%. I have two dell 1080p monitors. When I attempt to change my external monitors to 100% the apply button doesn't show. If I change the primary display from the current setting of 200% to 100% the apply button doesn't show. If I then change it back to 200% it does show. My bigger issue is I'm trying to figure out if there is a way to do this through the CLI instead. Everything I see does not have a per monitor granularity. Note: I have currently the following enabled gsettings set org.gnome.mutter experimental-features "['scale-monitor- framebuffer']" -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1745440 Title: "Apply" button is missing from Displays Status in gnome-control-center package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Steps to reproduce: 1.
