I doubt the dialog would "resize" in any arch (or any distro) because there is just no code for that in TeXmacs' GUI. I believe the difference you see is related to details in the desktop settings (the "theme" if you prefer; maybe the default font or its size size is different in Arch and Fedora...), like I mentionned earlier.
As for ways to drag a window partially past the screen edge in Gnome, see https://help.gnome.org/users/gnome-help/stable/shell-windows-states.html.en

Nope sadly the alt click does no good. However, This issue does not persist on the Arch Linux version with the XFCE desktop environment. On Arch with XFCE, the window resizes properly to the given resolution. I don't know if the code is different, but maybe you guys could look at the Arch Linux version and see what is different.

Thank you

This the same complaint as #48209; marking it as duplicate.

Even though the font dialog size was reduced since the previous report, this window can still get taller than your latop screen, depending on the settings of the desktop theme in use. The fix you suggest - implementing a scrollbar- requires a serious amount of coding.

Meanwhile, there is a simple workaround : On linux desktops you can normally drag any window by alt+click, enabling you to reveal this widget's buttons. The modifier key may be different on your desktops, though.

I have tried this on both the XFCE and Gnome desktop environments on Fedora 35.
The resolution I used was 1366 x 768 . The reason I used this resolution was because this is the max for my laptop screen (attached screenshot). I also attached another screenshot showcasing the lack of a scroll bar to scroll to the bottom of the font selection menu.

Bug: Font selection window has no scroll bar.

How to Replicate: Switch to a lower resolution specifically 1366 x 768

OS: Fedora 35

Desktop Environment: Gnome and XFCE
