Difficulty using Tor Connection assistant with lower screen resolution or larger text font

Help Desk received a report from a user (WB: c2c3fd1d77a963809059fd328258861d) complaining that it's difficult (I'm sure for many, impossible) to use the Tor Connection assistant with lower screen resolutions:

I'm using VirtualBox 6.1.30 to run Tails 4.25 in a VM on a smaller 14" Win10 laptop with 1366x768 resolution. In more recent iterations of Tails, the new "Tor Connection" window that appears upon startup has elements of the window hidden by default. As it stands, the button(s) to proceed are hidden below the bottom of the screen and the window itself prevents movement or resizing by default. So, the buttons to proceed are inaccessible through mouse-click.

I also encounter this problem when testing new Tails releases in VirtualBox.

We don't specify a minimum screen resolution on our system requirements page.

The same problem happens when enabling the Large text option in the Accessibility menu.
