Wine Opens Incomplete Window

When I open software using Wine, the windows are cut off no matter what program I use. I am attempting to fix the issue by editing the settings using the winecfg command but I can't navigate anywhere. Certain elements are cut from the window and stretching the window just fills in the extra area with black. I have wine-staging, wine-gecko, wine-mono and winetricks all installed. I also have PlayOnLinux installed but no programs are installed using it at the moment. See this album for screenshots of the issue: https://imgur.com/a/eaT2nC6. Reinstalling the programs didn't solve the problem. I'm new to wine but I can provide more information as needed. In the screenshots I am running the i3-gaps window manager but I have the same issue on KDE Plasma regardless.

Re: Wine Opens Incomplete Window

I am no expert on wine, and I only use it to run legacy infinity games like icewind dale 2 and baldur's gate. Executing the the following command usually resolve the problem for me:

winetricks win98

Re: Wine Opens Incomplete Window

GTK integration is experimental and potentially expected to break, what happens if you disable that?

I did this and I am getting the same issue. I only have one program installed at the moment (dBpoweramp) but I had previously installed other programs. I have only used 1 prefix for the programs to share. Is it possible that is the issue?

I think it was disabled before I started having problems but since I can't interact with the entire window I can't modify most settings.
