    Yeah, UI scaling sucks on Windows. I've been complaining about it for quite some time. It's even worse when you have two monitors with different scaling settings.

    ID won't scale to 125, only to 150 or 200. So when you set the O/S scaling to 125 and turn on UI scaling in ID it scales it up to 150 or 200 depending upon the setting. At the very least make sure you have it set to "Scale to Lower Supported Scale Factor" or turn it off altogether.
