Hi,

I am working from home due to the coronavirus - hope you guys are all safe.

Installed Paraview 5.8 on my Elementary Linux PC. I am having really strange scaling problem. I have (hopefully) attached a screenshot. I get an error on startup - QApplication: invalid style override passed, ignoring it.

The icons are enormous. The window and font scaling looks way off. Any advice would be welcomed.

Thanks in advance.

Tim.

Bug in Qt, work around is :  
`QT_AUTO_SCREEN_SCALE_FACTOR=0 ./bin/paraview`
