Huge pixelated UI icons - please help if you can

Help/How To
1

Hello Everyone,

I’m pretty new with Shotcut but I could run it a couple of time successfuly on Xubuntu.
Now that I tried to run Shotcut 17.03.02 (shotcut-linux-x86_64-170302.tar.bz2) under Xubuntu 16.10 I see huge blocky user interface icons on my screen. (see screenshot)
I have installed all the recommended dependencies but it did not help. I think it is probably some missing package or setting… but I’m really out of ideas.
Any helpful input of yours would be really appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Andrew

Creating a /etc/profile.d/smthing.sh file with the content: QT_AUTO_SCREEN_SCALE_FACTOR=0
Immediately solved the problem after a restart.
