Preferences: Dialog panel on Linux doesn't show all values and can't be resized.

[AESilky]

Bringing up the File>Preferences on my Linux laptop doesn't display all of the settings/values.

There isn't a way to resize it (which I would expect for a panel like this), but all of the settings/values need to be visible.

Can you please spell out which settings are missing?

This is the entire dialog on my Linux laptop. It is cut off just below 'Automatically connect...`

Thanks for including a picture! What’s the size of your screen on that Linux laptop?

Here is the whole screen:

Very strange. Let me set up an Ubuntu VM and try it on my Mac.

It works on my Mac. The position of the dialog on Windows cuts off the title bar (so I can't move it). I'll take a screen shot on it.

This is on my Windows laptop. Resolution: 1366x768

I have two other Windows machines I can try it on. For Linux, I can try it on a Raspberry Pi if that would help.

Weird - it looks OK on my Ubuntu VM (after I installed python3-tk, python3-disutils, python3-serial, and python3-audio):

You've tried updating to the very latest (3.8? 3.9?) Python and Tkinter/Ttk?

[AESilky]

For some reason, the window sizing/positioning calls were causing the dialog to show up partially off screen on some instances of Linux. I've commented them out for now, allowing Tkinter/Tcl and the OS to position them as they see fit, and things are working. The dialog tends to show up near the upper left of the screen, rather than in the center - but it shows up completely and can be moved around.
