"Under the ‘Display’ tab, hold down the OPTION / ALT key while you press on the ‘Scaled’ button". Talk about UI.
Before that we had spend quite some money on HDMI cables and USB-C to HDMI adapters and stuff blaming 3rd party products along the way.
- encryptluks2 5y agoI think this is probably intentional to try to get people to spend money on a Mac display.
- ldrndll 5y agoWhen you say a "Mac" display, what are you referring to? Apple sells exactly one display - the XDR - and its pricing is such that no one casually buys because their $300 external display isn't working correctly. I very much doubt that is their motivation; it's likely just a (possibly misguided) effort to keep the UI simpler.
- KingOfCoders 5y agoIt was more of a $1500 external display ;-)
- djhn 5y agoI'm confused. If this isn't a joke I don't get, would you mind sharing some advice on how to get it for that price?
- KingOfCoders 5y agoI have replied to "buys because their $300 external display isn't working" with the fact that our external display was $1500. I'm confused now :-)
- djhn 5y agoI thought you meant that the Apple XDR Display could be had for 1500. My bad.
- KingOfCoders 5y agoNo, sorry for being not more clear.
