Hello,

On a monitor using display resolution: 1920 x 1200  
This is how a dashboard appears:

The same computer but different monitor with 1920 x 1080:

This has become an issue because our end users might find the dashboard to be clunky or margins might hiding data

How do I go about solving this? why do other apps look normal but Kibana look disportioned?

@jessgarson  
ES & Kibana Version 8.15.3

These are windows. In my local instance, it looks like it formats fine on Mac Laptop. Perhaps theres a distortion with windows?

Have you submitted a bug report yet, I think that might be the next step here.
