Document Properties Dialog truncated/unresizable on second open (Ubuntu)

Steps to reproduce:

  • Occurs with hidpi monitor with scaling
  • open fresh downloaded Inkscape appimage with "run"
  • created a basic drawing and tried to edit the "document properties" by clicking on the proper menu entry.
  • Close the dialog with CTRL + W or the (X) icon.
  • Reopened the dialog.
  • Try to resize the truncated dialog

What happened?

  • "Document properties" is a quarter of the size it had been before, approx. 404 × 454 pixels, so it is totally useless and I can not change it size. This windows is now impossible to use, making Inkscape TOTALLY USELESS ON LINUX. This is a critical issue for me. Please consider it.

What should have happened?

  • The Document Properties dialog should have the same size as when I opened it the first time.
  • Docking then undocking it fixes this problem

Inkscape Version and Operating System:

  • Inkscape Version: 1.0rc1 (09960d6f, 2020-04-09)
  • Operating System: LINUX UBUNTU
  • Operating System version: 19.10 /!\ with 4k, HIDPI OLED screen /!\

This issue is maybe similar to this one but not the same : inbox#506 (closed)

️ Thank you for programming and working on this amazing software that I use so much and love.
