Hello,  
I wish to resize paraview window so as to fit in well on my 14 inch screen. Currently, it appears as below:

I wish to scale it down! Please advise.

Thanks with kind regards,  
Aakash

> 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.
