Windows 10: [Windows 11] Buggy Screenshot Mode with Different Screen Scaling Setup

I have two monitors 14"+23.6" with different scaling factors 125% + 100%, which would cause screenshot mode recognising size of full screen incorrectly. Screenshot is normal if I change both to 100%I don't know if this have be reported earlier but I didn't found related info on this Release Info page

Lock vs Login screen screenshot

Hi Josey -

Thanks for the quick reply. While your suggestion does change the sign in process, it doesn't address the differing screenshot question. Following the steps doesn't make the login screenshot the same as the Lock screenshot. As I mentioned, I can't even find the screenshots being used for both screens.

Still looking a solution to this. Open to any other suggestions you might have to the problem. Thanks!

 

Lock vs Login screen screenshot

You can use your own image of any background and just go to settings/personalize/lock screen and click on browse as in the image below. It should make whatever picture you use as the Lock Screen

 

Remember DPI Scaling per Display Setup / resolution

Hi,

Windows perfectly remembers each screen resolution based on the display setup used. When I use my Surface on the Dock, I use the Surfaces Screen as 2nd Monitor.

My primary screen is 1920x1200 and I need to use it with 100% scaling.

The surface is 2736x1824 and I usually use it with 150% scaling.

However: while different scalings in a multi monitor setup actually seems to work, it has some minor issues, especially when you move one window from one screen to another.

This is why I would like to use the Surface screen with 1920x1200 (upscaled to 2736x1824 by GPU) and 100% scaling when it is docked.

Changing the resolution isn't a problem. Windows switches both screens to 1920x1200 when I use the Dock, and it switches back to 2736x1824 when I unplug the dock.

However, Windows does not change the scaling correctly! The scaling on the Surface screen is either always 150% or always 100% and it won't change automatically...

I guess the scaling is set per Screen only? Not per Screen+Resolution or Screen+Setup+Resolution?

Is there a way to set the scaling depending on the resolution and/or screen setup?

Thanks!
