Same for me, for my laptop display. On my external monitors (office and home; different sizes), I can fit two at 100, but only barely so for my external monitor at home, and it might not stay that way the next time the available fonts change or font rasterization changes and I have to reconfigure. (The reality for me is that I don't use side-by-side much when writing code, but I do when doing code reviews.) -David -- 𝄞 L.
