This tip is not system specific.

This tip is not software specific.

Workaround

The Graphical User Interface (GUI) supports only higher resolution screens that are larger than the panel size.

Additional information

This dialog is not resizable because the elements inside may collapse or be invisible. These elements are fixed width.

This behavior does not occur when reducing the startup panel size.
