<p>Trying to use some of the LXDE applications on a 10/11” netbooks screen, appears to throw up a problem with the window size.  The result of this is that the window for lxhotkey doesn&#39;t fit on the screen properly. As per illustration below.</p>

<p>I can resize this window, left to right,  so horizontally. I can&#39;t resize vertically.  Which is perhaps needed here.</p>

<p>This appears to be a common issue with many Linux applications on small screens.</p>
