Installed cauldron by network install three weeks ago using network install. It is a 32 bit Thinkpad T43. Screen resolution 1024x768 PROBLEM: Program windows of Handbrake and Kfoldersync are opened wider than the screen so user have to drag them around to use them. The windows can be stretced wider but not stretched down to full screen. Even the button in window frame "full screen" do not make them full screen, but too big as originally. Is that a problem of every program that shows that usability problem? Possibly - i can not drag them down to 1024x768 on any computer...! *If* so this bug is probably all upstream. But i cant see a reason for not being able to make the window smaller - there are free space between elements. Is there some system setting that can be adjusted?
Doe this happen regarless of used Desktop Environment, or only in Plasma5 (kfoldersync makes me assume you use Plasma5)

Yes, identical problem in mate and plasma. Now i found system requirements for Handbrake saying 1024x768 https://handbrake.fr/docs/en/latest/technical/system-requirements.html Maybe i should mail and ask if that is current, and they mean it fits a 1024x768 screen or is usable anyway (it is).
Add qbittorent 3.3.11 to the list, when you enable the search function, the window is resized too wide (and is not resizable)

To me that means it should fit :-) Assigning to the handbrake maintainer. qbittorrent, kfoldersync + other plasma apps may need separate bug reports (unless there's some underlying issue that I'm not aware of) CC'ing all packagers collectively, in case one of them can think of an underlying bug that affects all those applications.

I found a note on the forum that on windows it need more than 1024x768 if MSWindows text scaling is set to more than 100%. https://forum.handbrake.fr/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=35967&p=168924&hilit=1024x768#p168924 Is there some scaling in effect here on our DEs? I made a test: In Plasma right click handbrake window top frame, Select More actions > Specific window properties. Enable Size, Set to Force and change the width to 1024, and the window obey. Problem is that the last buttons on the row [Summary][Dimensions][ etc, etc... are cut off and not accessible. It seems like theese buttons are much wider than nexessary to conatin text, but one workaround i think would be to make text smaller. I cannot find a setting for that per window.

Sidenote: QET show a very large difference in display of the users document text on different computers, but very small change in menus. https://qelectrotech.org/forum/viewtopic.php?id=1004
Don't know the other applications but qbittorrent 3.3.12 improves a few this issue, when you enable the search tab the window expand to an acceptable size. so maybe is per application and not a global issue
I just learned from HandBrake developer that the program window *is* known to be that big. They will take a look at it. https://forum.handbrake.fr/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=36507 So I guess all the programs that are too big really are too big. So I invalidate this bug. If someone wants to experiment they hinted about setting up a panning screen (see given link)
