[Lazarus] High Res Screen, problems with IDE

Hi Everyone!


I have recently upgraded my linux machine to a laptop with high screen 
resolution (1920 x 1080) that for most programs is beautiful.

Unfortunately, parts of the Lazarus IDE do not respect the screen 
resolution (in at least one case only in the vertical direction!).

For example, the Menu Editor only resolves the horizontal resolution, 
resulting to the following display:


The Component Palette fails in both directions, as in:


If anyone can give me a hint as to where I should look for the code that 
causes this, I will be glad to try to patch it appropriately.

Thanks,

Don Ziesig


P.S.  Lazarus is not the only program that has similar problems, the 
Postgres Admin III program has a similar problem with vertical 
resolution when it displays table data, but that's not as critical.  The 
problems may be caused by Linux itself, but there are enough programs 
that display properly that I can't be sure.
