Expected Behavior

The "Manage Broadcast" dialog (YouTube broadcast setup) should automatically fit within the available screen area.
All action buttons at the bottom of the dialog :

  • "Select broadcast"
  • "Select broadcast and start streaming"
  • "Create broadcast"
    should be visible without requiring the user to manually resize or reposition the window.

Current Behavior

The dialog opens with a fixed height that is too large for the visible screen area, particularly on external monitors
with different DPI scaling. The bottom row of action buttons renders below the bottom edge of the dialog and is not
initially visible.

To access the buttons, the user must manually drag the dialog upward, resize it, or move it around before the
buttons become accessible.

This affects both tabs:

  • "Create New Broadcast" tab
  • "Select Existing Broadcast" tab

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Open OBS Studio on a monitor
  2. Connect a YouTube account via Settings → Stream → Service: YouTube
  3. Click the "Manage Broadcast" button in the main window controls
  4. Observe that the dialog opens and the bottom action buttons are clipped below the visible screen area

Anything else we should know?

This is reproducible on Windows with an external monitor connected, particularly when the external monitor
has different DPI scaling than the primary display.
