    How to Screenshot 1080p and 4K resolutions on Windows 10?


    I was watching a youtube video and I saw a scene where I would lke to screen shot and make into my wallpaper, is there anyway I can screen shot it in 4K, since when I use ctrl+ prtSc or the snipping tool it gives the picture in 720p or lower. Help

  2. 4K and 1080p monitors

    Hello everyone,

    I have a question regarding the different resolutions of computer screens. I have laptop with a 4K display and I have a 1080p monitor. Most applications that I use tend to scale correctly when I drag them across displays. However some applications like IDLE
    or Corsair UE don't tend to change their resolutions. They tend to stay the same when dragged to another display, so if it started on the 1080p screen it would go to really small and stay small on the 4k display and if I drag it from the 4k to the 1080p display
    the application is massive and can't be viewed. Is there any possible shortcut which can be used to "refresh" the application without quitting and re-opening?

    Thanks in advance,

    .

  3. Dual Monitor Setup issues - 4k and 1080p combination

    The issue is worse than it seems at first. I have a 4k display (200%) scaling and a 1080p display (100% scaling) and even office apps look blurry on the 1080p display. If I unplug the 4k display and reboot the problem goes away. I believe the problem is
    present on all apps and is a system issue. It's been suggested that to get the 100% scaling everything on both monitors is generated at 200% and then the part on the 1080p display is downsampled to 100%, resulting in the poor quality.

    As it is Windows 10 is almost unusable with a very different DPI dual monitor setup.

    How to Screenshot 1080p and 4K resolutions on Windows 10?

    Cloning a 4K panel to a 1080p monitor

    I'm not entirely sure that this can be achieved with built in software, the "cloned" output expects to put out the exact same picture on multiple ports.

    This means you either need

    1. to have it at 1080p and let the 4k screen do upscaling or, if you still need the 4k resolution,
    2. you need to downscale the image for the 1080p monitor.

    For the downscaling solution something like a hardware 4k to 1080p converter box would do the trick. Something like this 4k to 1080 up/downscaler.

    These kinds of bits of hardware should not be significantly expensive, but I think it is the only way it is going to work in practice.

    1080p on a 4K monitor or 1080p?: If I get a 4K, I'd play 1080p on it before later upgrading GPU for 4K But I hear 1080p on 4K = blurry. Or is it one of those things like 'very high shadows' v 'high shadows' where you'd need to compare screenshots to see a difference and / or care?
