Oversized Libray properties dialog

[fmartelg]

JabRef version 5.0-alpha

• [x ] I have tested the latest development version from http://builds.jabref.org/master/ and the problem persists

1. • In the toolbar section where he icons are located I see three icons, about 3x empty space, a long search box and then more empty space and >>> where, once clicked, I can see the other icons.
2. • Click Library > Library properties, and oversize window opens that spills outside the viewing area. I cannot resize it, nor close it except by hitting ESC.
3. • I cannot find the menu to set font sizes that existed in previous version. The current version is very hard to read, even with reading glasses in a modern laptop.

My computer is a HP SPECTER laptop, display res 1920 x 1018, scaling 150%

Hi @fmartelg , at least about the font size: should be available via options -> preferences -> appearance.

Hi @fmartelg , at least about the font size: should be available via options -> preferences -> appearance.

Options -> preferences yields this menu + error. I don't see option "appearance" but maybe I am missing something

Searching at the top left search option for "appearance" or "font" yields 0 results.

You can scroll scroll down the list on the left. The scrollbars should already be a little bit more visible on the latest dev-build.
The bad visibility of that tab is probably another issue here.

@fmartelg : Are you using the 5.0 Alpha version from https://github.com/JabRef/jabref/releases?

If so, you might want to try the latest development version: https://builds.jabref.org/master/
(I think at the moment you have to use the portable version, since there is a problem with the installer.) Before installing the dev version, always remember to make a backup of your database, in case something goes wrong.

In the latest development version, issues 1 and 3 should be fixed.
