When connecting the Steam Deck to a HiDPI monitor, I would like to have the scaling set to 150%. However, this scaling does also apply to the Steam Deck.

Is there a way to decouple the two scaling percentages in order to have 100% on the Steam Deck’s screen and 150% on the HiDPI monitor? Thanks.

Edit: Talking about desktop mode.

Apologies if this is a dumb suggestion, I only briefly tested it, but couldn't you simply run your display at a lower resolution? The deck would perform better and the interface/game scale would match each display correctly.

EDIT: Ah, maybe you mean the desktop, not the steam deck game interface, in which case things would look pretty bad at a lower resolution.

True, I have not specified it. Yes, I mean the desktop mode.
