Is this some kind of bug. On a fresh install, I face the same issue

Re: Pop up window too big in XFCE

My gtk apps are broken. The radio widgets and windows get stretched abnormally. See the screenshot. https://imgur.com/a/J1EXMjr. In the screenshot, it's the plank preferences, when run from terminal I get

CRITICAL [PANGO] pango_layout_get_pixel_extents: assertion on .. failed
.

I even tried this even on fresh installation.Just base base-devel Xorg, xfce4 and xfce4-goodies and lightm. So another package messing up is ruled out. Am I missing some gtk-engine or something or is it an upstream bug ?

I think this is related https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/32372

Apparently you also don't have a monospace font installed…

It was the missing Noto-fonts which was causing it. Thanks a lot
