Microsoft Surface - Windows 8.1 - Multimonitor Resolution Problems

Surface Pro

Windows 8.1 Pro

Dual Screen while Connected with a Mini DisplayPort to VGA (Not Using Microsoft's Official Adapter)

Horizon View Client 5.4.0 build-1219906

VM View Agent 5.1.3

When I run the Horizon View Client in Multimonitor mode it doesn't not set the resolution properly and the screens look shifted to the right.  The VDI pixels don't start until 1/3 into the side of my Surface screen and the other screen is all off...

Here is the resolution settings on my Surface...

And here is the resolution setting that show up when I connect to my VM...

I'm not sure why it isn't setting the proper resolution.  I did restart after changing the resolution on my Surface.

Thanks,

Turned out to be changing the "Make text and other items larger or smaller" to Smaller.  Hopefully and update will make this compatible in the future.
