Description: I use the option to edit the preferences before saving a new document. After the Update to 24.2.6.2 (LO 7) Writer opens a window that is too big for the screen. (see screenshots). It is the same window you get with menu "File" > "Preferences …". The OK-button is out of view, but responde to a simple Hit of the "Enter"-key. There seems no way to shrink the window size. With the Mouse-Cursor, I can only make the window bigger, but not smaller. The description tab had now (since LibreOffice 7.6) a lot more categories. So the windows is taller than the screen. When I click through the tabs, there seems no obvious reason that the window is that wide (meant from left to right). Steps to Reproduce: 1. Choose "File" > "Preferences …" Actual Results: the window opened is a lot bigger (than in LO-7.6) and is not shrinkable Expected Results: Expected behavior: The window should open in a smaller size and show scrollbars instead of filling the screen over the edge. The window should be changeable and should flip to scrollbars. Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: Yes Additional Info: I work on Ubuntu 24.04.1 LTS, LibreOffice 24.2.6.2 420(Build:2) and with a limitted screensize of a Thinkpad X230 (1366x768, ratio 16:9). I don't know if only Linux/Ubuntu is affected, so I choose "Linux (All)" as affected Platform. It could be a thing with the UI or the window-manager.
Created attachment 197372 [details] Screenshot, the Preferences-window is bigger than whole screen.
Workaround: In Ubuntu you could shift the window over the top of the screen: 1. Hold the WINDOW-KEY and left-click on the window 2. Hold the left-mouse-click and move the mouse to shift the window, so that you could see the rest of the window and the buttons (help, reset, cancel, OK)
