a screenshot of kate setting dialog box showing bootom half clipped

SUMMARY
setting dialog box of kate gets clipped at the bottom on low resolution displays(eg 1280x800) as shown in the screenshot attachment. this makes its immpossible to access the apply, discard or cancel button unless the user is proficient in using tab button in the keyboard. it doesnt matter even if the dialog box is maximised 

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. open kate app on a low res monitor (1280x800)
2. open the settings dialog

OBSERVED RESULT
the bottom part of dialog box is clipped

EXPECTED RESULT
bottom part should be visible/accessible irrespective of dialog box size
