Public bug reported: Details views in dialogs are too small, the viewing height is approx. 15px. My machine has a screen resolution of 2880x1800 on 15". I have to adjust the scaling to 1,62 to be able to read text. This leads to just half a line displayed in the viewing slot.
Initially I reported this issue with deja-dup (https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1635197) but this issue also shows up on several other dialog boxes (e.g. system updates - download of repos, ...). Thus I presume it either to be related with Unity or xorg. If you need additional information to identity the source, let me know. This behaviour is new to 16.10 and can be reproduced on any machine that I have access to.
