Public bug reported: I have a 2880x1620 onboard display and a 1080p external display that I use for my computer. As far as I can tell xorg does not allow for different scaling options for two separate displays. Based on https://askubuntu.com/questions/1028622/different-display-scale- settings-18-04 I logged in with Wayland and thought I had achieved the effect I wanted. However, after I started using my computer, I realized that some applications were still scaled based on the display I set to be primary. I have my 1080p display set as primary. Firefox, for example, looks just fine on my primary, but when I move it to the higher-DPI display, it does not look correct.
