Windows 10: Advanced scaling question - 115% possible?

Instead of 100% or 125%, I want to select something like 115% for my Dell UP3216Q. I find 100% too tiny but think I can use 115% to 118%, that seems to be just right.

does that mean if I go into "Custom scaling" and enter a custom scaling size between 100%-500% (let's say 115%), it will override the 100% or 125% , etc. value set in the main display menu?

outlook blurry & advanced scaling settings

There is no compatibility tab. I am using windows 10 1803

Can you please list the steps with regard to the second solution you are proposing?

Please also read again the original question.

I want to avoid having to navigate the options to eliminate the scaling value of 100% and loging out, each time I am using my computer with the laptop screen only (i.e. not connected to the two external monitors). Windows should be able to detect this on
its own, without me telling windows "hey the two monitors are not connected", please use a scaling adpated for the laptop screen.

Yes I need further assistance.
