This is probably a Wayland windowing system problem, not a GnuCash
problem. On Xorg, the window is easily resizable and movable.
What have you tried besides changing the display resolution back and forth?
If you were on Xorg, I would say try these individual solutions on the
Preferences window:
* dragging the grabbable titlebar of the window down, then using your
mouse to resize the window shorter, then dragging it up so you can see
the bottom
* holding down your Alt key and then click-holding your normal (left)
mouse button and dragging the window with your mouse
* hitting Alt+F7, then using your arrow keys to move the window and
hitting Enter when you have it where you want it
* hitting Alt+F8, then using your arrow keys to resize the sides of the
window and hitting Enter when you have it where you want it
And then I would tell you that, if this window is appearing in the wrong
place all the time, you could install and set up devilspie to fix it
permanently. :)
Surely Wayland has some similar way to manipulate windows. My quick
search says that shortcuts are handled by the compositor in Wayland [1].
You might get much better answers if you ask in the Gnome support
channels.
Good luck! This is a frustrating problem to have. :(

Hello!
I am trying to set up GnuCash:
Version: 4.13
Build ID: 4.13+(2022-12-17)
Finance::Quote: 1.54
on Debian 12 (bookworm), 64-bit, using Gnome 43.4, wayland windowing
system (not xorg).
This is a .deb package, "GnuCash Version: 1:4.13-1, Built-Using:
googletest (= 1.12.1-0.2)", from the Debian Stable repositories, NOT a
flatpak, snap, or appimage.
When I do Edit --> Preferences, the Preferences window opens, but the
bottom part is cut off. No matter what I try, I can am not able to
resize it to fit the screen. Nor can I even move it past the top edge
of the screen. I even tried reducing the display resolution, to no
avail.
So, is there a solution, or even a viable workaround?
