Display logical resolution in display settings |
|||
Issue description
The current display size settings for internal display does not show
any information about the logical pixels that are currently on the
screen. This leads to some negative experiences, specifically:
- It confuses the users on what display zoom actually does specially
since the external monitor still shows a drop down for resolutions.
- OEMs prefer using the physical pixel resolution of the device as a
key marketing point. Not showing the logical pixels to the users
takes it away.
- Developers want to know what the current screen resolution is for
app/web development.
