Tabbed Safe Mode

See attached in Safe mode, i had to re-enable Tabbed mode as this was disabled due to safe mode. It now shows in dark mode, but same problem.

My component looks very different than yours it seems?
Are you on Windows?

How can this be resolved, do you know?

Unfortunately still the same problem (see attached).
Also with Skia off the problem persists.

Please see attached, the box does not seem to scale well, also horizontally when icon size has been set to Extra Large.
There is sufficient space left in the tab-bar, this is on a 14 inch laptop.

Is it possible to make the box to scale dynamically based on the content and on the icon size set? Now it's hardly usable

New screenshot attached of compressed box

This box does not scale dynamically based on the icon size set. Other text in the tab bar does scale dynamically on bigger text.
Comment 16 m_a_riosv 2025-12-28 14:16:17 UTC
Please test with a different resolution in the System. Screen configuration.

100% scaling

It indeed seems to be caused by system scaling.
My laptop has default scaling of 200% (recommended).
Attached is scaling at 100%, 200%(recommended) and 300%.

It's only this element in the LibreOffice UI that does not handle the system scaling correctly.

I have my computer in the service, so I can not verify it.
I think something similar was already reported.

Hi @Heiko can you help here?
