I would like to handle BTSync GUI in Ubuntu 14.04 in small displays. I would like to do this without installation Additions in Virtual environments such as VirtalBox. I downloaded BTsync here 64 bit without glibc, extracted it in Desktop and started the client by ./btsync. BTsync's GUI is limited when used with small screen (< 7") in Ubuntu Linux. I cannot get forward in the GUI in the stage

enter image description here

where you see that there is no y-axis scrollbar in the right. So I cannot move downwards by two-fingers like in other views. I think this is a bug in BTsync's frontend that causes most complications in limited view environments like running the software in VirtualBox's Ubuntu where I have about 5" screen/display size because of memory limitations. VirtualBox is here just a test environment and I can reproduce the bug in running Ubuntu in embedded systems of small displays.

The bug is specific to Linux because they have unique login through the internet browser.

I successfully created the user ID just before going to the view in the screenshot; however, I cannot get forward as described above. I cannot completely see the view below in the internet browser. I am running VirtualBox inside OS X El Capitan.

How can you pass the view in the internet browser by some Terminal command? I keep the phase of adding user account and having a welcome screen in BTsync redundant. It would be great to setup the account in Terminal instead. I would just like to link the BTsync to existing circle so probable command is btsync --config <path>.


How can you Handle BTSync GUI in Ubuntu 14.04 with Small Displays?

I sent a ticket to the Developers of BTsync March/2016. They promised to pass the piece of information forward to developers, but did not promise any time to provide the simple fix.
