I recently bought a fancy 4k monitor because well, it's just amazing. The colors and details are so much better than my 1080p monitors.

But, I have a (minor) problem while trying to code my applications.
For some reason my resolution within the IDE's has changed, all my apps look messed up, all fonts, pictures, etc... don't seem to scale well. When debugging they just look fine.

Added a picture below.

Any settings or scaling I need to change?

What I have tried:

Tried scaling my display settings, this didn't change anything so far.

I solved my problem.

Looked like my image settings were changed for some reason, stretching them solved this issue. For the fonts and text I had to scale my display settings back to the recommended size and log off and back on.
