Is there a way yet to properly use two screens with mixed DPI in Windows 10?

My girlfriend is using one of my old Surface books (Original version 1) with has a high resolution, 3000 x 2000. To make it usable it needs to be set to 200% DPI which is the default res and DPI.

She extents screens to a second small 20" 1080p screen but using this results in browser windows / everything being huge as it uses 200% DPI. Setting 1920 x 1080 on the Surface book and 100% DPI allows it to work but the Surfacebook then looks really small and slightly blurry compared to the standard 3000 x 2000, 200% DPI

Ideally (if possible) I want to lock the second screen to 1080p 100% DPI and primary Surfacebook to 3000 x 2000 200% DPI
 
I've currently got 2 displays, 1 at 4k and another at 1080. The 4k is set to 150% and the 1080 is at 100% with no issue, it's just something you can set in the display settings.
 
Thanks both, i'll check again and confirm. I'm sure there was no way to set one screen at 200% and the other at 100% DPI when choosing to extend multiple displays (at least on the Surfacebook)
