Hi juergen sman, You can increase the scaling of the user interface in: Tools > Options > LibreOffice > View User Interface : Scaling Is it useful for you? Jacques

Believe it of not this was done to improve integration with HiDPI systems like Apple Retina displays. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 101646 ***
Created attachment 131872 [details] with scaling, the text becomes too big for input line field. Using (still) Version: 5.1.6.2, on Mac OS 10.12.3 (sierra), increasing the scaling from 100% to 150% did increase ALL values of the calc-sheet (including the content of the Preferences/Options window). It also increased the text size of the input line, however it did not increase the hight of the input line as it did for the rest of the sheet. now the text is too big for input line field.

That is the Formula Bar in its collapsed default state, but it can be toggled to Expanded out of single line mode, and then set to a height you prefer that will show the full lines of text.
