As workaround for those with just one monitor (or many but the same size), I tried what Kristo Ojasaar (kristoo) already suggested and I found something even simpler. There is no needs for the 'Tweak'-tool: For a 4k monitor, set it to 100% and go to Settings -> Universal Access and activate 'large text'. Now the 'scaling' is more or less what 125% under Ubuntu 19.10 used to be.
Seeing something so simple solving this, I wonder why the developers do not a define a css style-sheet (or however the gui colors / font size etc are defined) for the different scaling options and apply these as soon e.g. '125%' scaling is activated. -- 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/1870736 Title: [nvidia] Screen scaling 125% gives 200% Status in gnome-control-center package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in mutter package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Procedure used: 1.
