Before opening the issue, have you...?

Searched for existing issues
Read through the Monitor-Troubleshooting Wiki
Updated MonitorControl to the latest version (if applicable)

Describe the issue

Control (volume + brightness) not working proportionally. Another way to phrase the issue would be that the controls are not using up the entire scale/bar.

Volume reaches max with a tiny portion of the volume control. (like 1/10). Current workaround is using the "fine OSD scale".
Brightness works better but has the same problem, rather than using 1/10, it uses 1/2 of the scale, roughly.

Expected behavior

Controls utilising entire scales.

Anything else?

Thanks very much for the very handy app! It helped tremendously.

Environment Information (please complete the following information)

- macOS version: 12.4
- Mac model:M1 Pro 13 (w/ touchbar) 
- MonitorControl version: 4.1.0
- Monitor(s): Benq EU2880U
- Monitor Cable(s)/Connection(s): type-c <direct> type-c
- Apple Silicon/M1 (yes or no): yes

Hi there, you can rescale the DDC scale or change the skew of the scale under Displays. You need to enable Advanced
