I am facing the same problem.

Nvidia Geforce 940MX/Driver Version: 440.64  .

I tried xrandr scaling but it just throws part of the  desktop out of
the screen. I have a setup of 2 monitors one with 1920x1080 and one with
1366x768. It would be great if we can have fractional scaling seperately
for seperate monitors because on my laptop its really small and its huge
on the monitor. I tried the workaround provided by @Kristo  it works to
an extent but doesn't really solve everything; still its better to have
something than nothing. I am new to ubuntu, could someone help me if
there is any way to manipulate icon size seperately for different
monitors?
