Linux pocket_sdr.py Display Distortion #73

PocketSDR is terrific! I Just got my 4-channel PocketSDR and it works amazingly well, running on Ubuntu 24.02 LTS on a i7 Ultra laptop.

When I run the pocket_sdr.py Python GUI version, I see (attached photos) that the screens are distorted (text bunched up, pulldown menus distorted). I'm guessing there is a mismatch between Windows and Linux tkinter screen displays. Have others seen this, and is there an easy way to fix this in Python by scaling the screen or some other means? Thanks!

Update: I was able to get the screens looking somewhat better by setting a smaller default font size in pocket_sdr.py, and then changing the width and heights manually for each of the panels and pulldowns. Cumbersome, but at least all fields are mostly visible now.
