How do I setup multiple monitors with different PPIs without scaling

Hello, I am trying to multiple monitors with xrandr, but it seems that xrandr detects the monitors to all be the same size. This causes issues when moving my mouse from monitor to monitor. Most solutions I have been told for this is to scale the monitor down, but this causes the monitor picture to be rather blurry, is there any other solution?

Could you show us the output of xrandr and point out what you expect?
Also could you specify what do you mean by "size"? Is it resolution, aspect ratio, density?
From my experience xrandr ( that is to say the X11 system ) has always detected the adequate resolution for each physical device.
