Steps:
1. Make sure menu style is setup for gamepad
2. Open system configuration
3. Navigate to display settings, then high resolution ui settings

Issue:
100% HD and 150% Full HD are configured correctly to give the same & consistent UI experience at 1280x720 and 1920x1080 respectively. The 200% choice is strange.

200% of 1280x720 is 2560x1440. Yet the minimum resolution to set 200% is higher than this, meaning at 2560x1440 (1440p) you're stuck with a shrunken menu UI.

The main menu on a gamepad is not something you can scale in the HUD layout.

Also, in game it says 200% (4K). 4K scaling would be 300% of the base UI not 200%. To correct this and make everything consistent and look good like the 100% and 150% values; the options would have to be:

200% (1440p) - 2334x1312 or higher
250% (1800p) - 2917x1640 or higher (uncommon resolution)
300% (4K) - 3501x1968 or higher
600% (8K) - 7002x3936 or higher

Adjusting the value on PS4 Pro to 200% (1440p) - 2334x1312 or higher will fix the same issue there also.
