I have the same issue in Arch Linux, Gnome version 3.26.2. Looks like an
upstream issue!

I have the same issue while using

Ubuntu 17.10,
gnome-control-center 3.26.2

I'm attempting to have my laptop monitor (HP Spectrum 4k monitor) with
scale at 200% which works correctly.

And then scale my external monitors to 100%. I have two dell 1080p
monitors. When I attempt to change my external monitors to 100% the
apply button doesn't show.

If I change the primary display from the current setting of 200% to 100%
the apply button doesn't show. If I then change it back to 200% it does
show.

My bigger issue is I'm trying to figure out if there is a way to do this
through the CLI instead. Everything I see does not have a per monitor
granularity.

Note: I have currently the following enabled

gsettings set org.gnome.mutter experimental-features "['scale-monitor-
framebuffer']"
