Operating System: Windows 10
Exact Lightroom Version (Help menu > System Info): 7.1
I have a new laptop that has a 4K internal display. My external monitors are 24" with a maximum resolution of 1920 x 1200. The monitors are connected to the NVIDIA graphics card through the HDMI port and the mini-display port.
Most applications are able to be displayed on any of the three displays without problem, but the entire Adobe Creative Suite seems to have serious problems displaying in a workable way with this setup. I have worked with NVIDIA support who has indicated that the graphics card is able to drive the lower resolution external monitors with the higher resolution built-in display but they have, so far, not been able to help me solve the display issues with Lightroom and Photoshop and a File Open dialog from a browser.
Lightroom - even if opened directly on one of the external monitors (instead of "moved" there after it opens on the built-in display) - has HUGE menus while everything is the correct size (I've attached a picture). Adobe Bridge opens with everything really small (picture attached). And the File Open dialog when it opens from a Chrome browser showing on one of the external monitors is GINORMOUS (picture attached). When I move Photoshop from the built-display to an external monitor it is huge and won't size down.
All of the pictures (except the last one) are a screen capture of the entire 24" monitor space and so you can see across the three images how differently things are displaying. The last one has the full width of the 24" display but not the height as the file was too large to upload if I had the entire height.
Any ideas or suggestions? Again, I'm not having this problem with the MS Office Suite or with any other applications outside of Adobe Creative Suite.
Appreciate your time and any help.
