Manually resizing till everything is on the screen / the scrollbar disappea=
rs=20
and then checking with xwininfo how large the window is.

I use helvetica 12 for all relevant fonts, which corresponds to the default=
s.
Unlike the defaults, I also use 12 for taskbar and toolbar, but that should=
n't=20
matter.

xdpyinfo says:
	resolution:    90x96 dots per inch

Yes, the horizontal scrollbar just makes it too large. Is there some extra=
=20
space under "Default LISA Server host?" This is only a few pixels though...

Yes. Maybe "Advanced Settings" can move up and to the left, directly under=
=20
"Trusted IP addresses".

I don't think you need string changes... you need some text on the "advance=
d"=20
button, but you may be able to reuse the text from the tab. If you want to=
=20
change it to "Advanced Settings" like in the network tab you should ask on=
=20
kde-i18n-doc if that's ok.

Cheers,
