Bug Description
Go to settings > Screen display, drag UI scale to the right (max 4). UI immediately rescales. Screen display window is now too big, and the bottom edge of the window is off the screen so the window can't be dragged and resized. The UI scale slider is off the bottom of the screen. There is no obvious way to resize the window or reset the UI scale, and unlike the other options in the display settings, the value is applied immediately rather than when the user clicks apply, and does not get reset after a timeout.
