I have Windows 8.1 64bit Home and DisplayFusion Pro. I use it for switching from my main 24" computer monitor to my 40" television when watching movies. However when viewing far away its hard to make out the text and icons on the television, so would ideally like the DPI to be bigger when on that screen to make navigation easier.
Is there anyway to achieve this? Is it done through Windows or DisplayFusion itself? It seems this is possible in Windows 10 but not sure about Windows 8.1?
Unfortunately this isn't something DisplayFusion can do, sorry. Windows 8.1 sort of supported per-monitor scaling but, it was "automatic" and didn't really work. Windows 10 has it more or less sorted out though

Ok thanks. Maybe its time I finally upgraded then!
Btw thanks for making the change I requested in the latest version, much appreciated.
Has anything changed in this matter after Windows 10 Anniversary Update? I have a multi-monitor setup with a 15,6" laptop which has 1920x1080 resolution. W10 now allows to have different dpi for laptop screen and external screens, so I set it to 125% on the laptop screen while docked, but would like to switch back to 100% scale when laptop is undocked.
Could DisplayFusion handle that?
DisplayFusion can't currently switch the scaling levels, but it is on our feature request list. We'll be sure to post an update if/when we're able to add that
I have a large 4K TV I'm using as a third monitor, and I'd like to assign a hotkey to change the font scaling on the fly. (I want to change scaling factor depending on whether I am viewing the monitor from close up or from further away.)
It's been a long time coming, but we've finally added the ability to set the monitor scaling level in DisplayFusion's Monitor Configuration and Monitor Profiles. This is available in the latest beta version, here: https://www.displayfusion.com/download/beta
