Truncated text on buttons is unreadable

[ryan-carpenter]

JabRef version

Latest development branch build (please note build date below)

Operating system

GNU / Linux

Details on version and operating system

openSUSE Tumbleweed

Checked with the latest development build (copy version output from About dialog)

• I made a backup of my libraries before testing the latest development version.
• I have tested the latest development version and the problem persists

Steps to reproduce the behaviour

1. View entries in the possible duplicates dialog
2. Text does not fit on the buttons, so the text is truncated and cannot be read, because the buttons also do not have a tooltip.

Other dialogs also have this problem. This example (possible duplicates) is particularly troublesome because the button-text cannot be discerned by process of elimination (unlike when there are only two choices and one of them is "cancel").

@HoussemNasri can we extract some of the fixes from that PR ?

[HoussemNasri]

Yes, the PR fixes the truncation issue and the brief JavaFX theme flash at startup, the rest of the behavior is still the same until we find a proper fix for the theme switching exception (which happens but less often even in the current version)

I read the comments as the PR fixes the issue.

@ryan-carpenter please re-open if the issue persists.
