    Description

      Qt Creator is completely unusable on my second monitor.

      I run a dual monitor setup:

      • 3840 x 2160 set to 225% resolution,
      • 2560 x 1080 set to 100% resolution

      On the high-res one, it look great.
      On the low-res one, see the screenshot.

      It seems as though it's applying the high-res scaling to the application when it's on both monitors...
