Me too.
 
I compile pcb-rnd frequently these days.  I am starting on a new circuit board, and with testing new features in mind,
and when I start pcb-rnd compiled for gl with these options:
 
./configure  --debug  --buildin-diag  --prefix=/usr/local  --buildin-export_bom  --buildin-hid_gtk2_gl --disable-gpmi
 
The program starts two windows that need to be resized to use them and the target to hit with a mouse on my
two 1600?

Screen 0: minimum 8 x 8, current 3840 x 1080, maximum 16384 x 16384
DVI-I-0 disconnected primary (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
DVI-I-1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
DVI-I-2 connected 1920x1080+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 477mm x 268mm
 
no, they are 1920 pixels wide screens.
 
When I go to resize them the grab area is about 3 x 6mm on the upper left,
and a tiny 2x2mm on the lower right.  Can the lower right be increased?  6x6mm for both would be more reasonable for
midnight engineers, over 45 years engineers, speed obsessed engineers, and anyone under 40 that's not a target shooter competitor 
or finely tuned Olympic level sportif.
 
If this requires a deep dive into GUI toolkit upstream requests, I understand not doing it.
