Description
### Description of the new feature / enhancement
A "Quick Scale" button in Power Display
### Scenario when this would be used?
I'm a lecturer who often need to show my screen to the students, so, sometimes I need to scale my screen to 200% so my students can see better and scale back to 150% or 125% when I use it for my own work. I love the Power Display for its convenience, and I think it would be a great enhancement if there is a dedicated Quick Scale button that can also be added to the Profile. Thank you so much for your time.

Research direction
The issue does not name files, tests, or an entry point. Start by locating the Power Display UI and the existing display-scaling and Profile settings; confirm how current scale values are applied. Done means a dedicated Quick Scale button can switch to commonly used values such as 200%, 150%, or 125% and can be added to a Profile.
