What's the issue you encountered?

When I have scaling set in KDE Plasma settings then when I open ImHex it's oversized and goes outside of screen. Looks like this:

As you can see right side close/minimize buttons are outside of screen. Bottom is cut off aswell. Also first time I ran it, looked like this and I was very confused, couldn't resize window at all:
