I've been using 1800P Downscaled but I've decided that im sick of the blurriness.

When I switch to 1080p, the taskbar and menu bars are huge! I've tried setting it to smallest for all displays, but it's still too big! 

I know for a fact the scaling can be smaller because i've seen it smaller.

Any way to make it smaller? I really enjoy having more screen real estate.

Sorry, no one here can read your mind.

Please be specific. What is your problem? What is your monitor? What is "1080p downscaled" vs 1080p?

How is the task bar huge, as you say. Picture?

*1800P downscaled.

@OP: In the display options there's a change text size option that will allow you to shrink things smaller than just using the scaling levels (I'm not sure if that just affects the text or the bar itself too though) and for the taskbar you can set it to use small taskbar buttons to shrink it down (you loose the date under the time if you do that though).

I did it, but it still looks too big for 1080p

Err. yea, typo on my part. Sorry. Corrected. And Thanks.

Well, my questions still stand.

The monitor is a rl2455hm and when I use 1800p the task bar is only like .4 inches tall.

When j switch to 1080p it becomes like 1 inch

Sorry for the horrible typos I'm on mobile.

Ah ok. So, your monitor is 1920x1080, and what you used to do, is push your your graphics card to render 3200x1800, and have it scaled down to 1080p.

Basically, resulting in text being blurry and hard to read, but gaming looking nicer (at least the initial idea).

Now you are trying to remove everything and return the display to 1080p native.

Ok, just so that I can better tell you what to do, and not make this conversation be like support call, where we spend the next week going over the basics, can you post a screen shot of what you see. Feel free to blur/black out anything you want to hide from public viewing.
