Qt toolkit should be able to deal with this sort of issue. Please open a bug upstream to add screen shot, etc... I don't have a so small screen. https://github.com/qbittorrent/qBittorrent/issues/ Christian

Maybe the best is to configure a theme for qt{5,6} applications ?
You can try this theme kde-style-oxygen-qt5
Then set QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME to qt5ct
export QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME=qt5ct
Install the qt5ct package
You can select the oxygen theme (or another one) with qt5ct.

Bug#1037936: Qt6: Dialog minimum size larger than screen
Package: qbittorrent Version: 4.5.3-2 Severity: normal Tags: a11y upstream The new Qt6 version of qBittorrent apparently does a better job reading my font size settings from XFCE. The result is that fonts are scaled up in a way that's comfortably easier for a legally blind reader … except the torrent options dialog no longer fits on screen. I've tried shrinking this to fit, but the minimum size possible still has to fit everything the dialog contains within that minimum dialog size. A solution to this might be to place the dialog's controls inside a widget which can scroll if the dialog is smaller than its contents. I don't really code Qt stuff, so I don't know what widget that would be, but I'm betting the devs do. Workaround for now is to know how to grab a window by something other than the titlebar in your WM or whatever one does under Wayland and move the titlebar offscreen so you can reach the options and buttons at the bottom of the larger than the screen dialog. -- System Information: Debian Release: trixie/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 6.1.0-9-amd64 (SMP w/16 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages qbittorrent depends on: ii libc62.36-9 ii libgcc-s113.1.0-5 ii libqt5sql5-sqlite5.15.8+dfsg-12 ii libqt6core6 6.4.2+dfsg-11 ii libqt6dbus6 6.4.2+dfsg-11 ii libqt6gui6 6.4.2+dfsg-11 ii libqt6network6 6.4.2+dfsg-11 ii libqt6sql6 6.4.2+dfsg-11 ii libqt6widgets6 6.4.2+dfsg-11 ii libqt6xml6 6.4.2+dfsg-11 ii libssl3 3.0.9-1 ii libstdc++6 13.1.0-5 ii libtorrent-rasterbar2.0 2.0.9-1 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.13.dfsg-1 qbittorrent recommends no packages. qbittorrent suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
