This effect is not present in Linux Mint. (1920x1080 screen, font Noto
Sans Bold Italic 12)
However, looking at the code in the Qt development environment this
clipping effect can be seen. These buttons all have a minimum width of
32 and the default font size is 12. Otherwise the size policy for these
buttons is the same as for the Tx 1-6 buttons.
With a button width of 32 the max font size for no clipping is 9. With
font size of 12 the minimum button width is ~48.
You can change the font size in Settings | General | Font. Reducing it
will help, but it will affect the entire window and I suspect you may
have tried that already and found it unacceptable.
It might also be worthwhile checking that the font you have selected
actually exists on your machine and is not being substituted, which can
cause weird effects.
You could just run the app with a larger width. At some point the
buttons will expand.
As a last resort, there is an easy code fix for this. Just go into the
mainWindow.ui and change houndButton | minimumSize | Width. Setting it
to 0 (on all six buttons) allows the application to scale the button
width in accordance with the combined sizing policies. However changing
just the houndButton from 32 to 48 is sufficient and doesn't introduce
any other sizing effects. Recalculate the md5 checksum. Recompile and
voila.

Not sure what’s happening here, but my guess would be that the screen
resolution may be off, but I was seeing this on other computers as well.
My computer is a Microsoft Surfacebook 2, with a screen resolution of
3240 x 2160. I was also seeing the same thing on my other computer
with a 32” ultra widescreen resolution of 2560 x 1080. I’m also
seeing this on v2.6.1 and v2.7.0-rc2. Is there a setting I need to
adjust, or is this something that requires a program change to fix?
