Bug description

I also use the Nextcloud Client in Windows 11 on a GPD Pocket 3 with a screen resolution of 1920x1080 pixels and 200% scaling, because the text and symbols on the screen would be too small to be readable without scaling. So the screen behaves like being 960x540 pixels. It is ok at 150% scaling, but then the screen content is to small in general, so I prefer 200%.

Also see the screenshots - main window when clicking the Nextcloud icon in the task bar (content blurred for privacy reasons):

And the settings window (content blurred for privacy reasons):

When I check the settings of the main window on my main desktop, it seems the minium size is 1226x1224 pixels at 200% scaling or about 613x612 pixels at 100% scaling.

And this is because the settings need that space since the forms can not be scrolled inside the window:

Steps to reproduce

  1. Start the desktop client on a screen with less than 636 pixels in height.
  2. See the main or settings window which does not fit in the screen

Expected behavior

The main window should be resizable to less than 600 pixels in height. 400 pixels should fit every Windows or Linux based device where Nextcloud can be used.

The settings window offers a scrollable view for the settings form for smaller screens so it can also be resized to a minium of 400 pixels in height.
