What's your screen resolution and scaling?

Scale : 100% (default)

Orientation : lanskap

Hm, the minimum height for this form is set to 660 pixels. That might be a bit tight depending on the height of your task bar.

On top of that there might be the general scaling problems in Delphi 11, but I actually doubt that this is the issue.

 

If you want to, get the sources, change the height of the GX_Configure form to e.g. 600 and compile your own DLL.

No, Delphi 11 is not guilty here 😉

There is some code in GX_Configure.pas which looks like some debug leftover: In line 311...316 the dialog is inflated to a minimum of 1000 x 1000 pixel. Remove that code an the configuration dialog will become usable.

You mean this one?

{$IFDEF IDE_IS_HIDPI_AWARE}
  if MinWidth < 1000 then
    MinWidth := 1000;
  if MinHeight < 1000 then
    MinHeight := 1000;
{$ENDIF}

I don't even remember why I added it. I probably was totally frustrated with trying to get that dialog working in whatever way with Delphi 11 on high DPI, that I simply pulled some absolute values out of my hat so see whether they work.

Surrounding it with
 

if TScreen_GetDpiForForm(Self) > 96 then begin
end;

Will probably solve this one particular problem.
