Re: Menu and Icons are cropped and not visible
Please retry with a current 0.20. If it still doesn't work, come back and attach your full FreeCAD info as described in the IMPORTANT forum rules linked above.

Re: Menu and Icons are cropped and not visible
Sad to say, at least with Debian and xfce, with prodark stylesheet, my current impression is this issue is worse in 0.20.

Re: Menu and Icons are cropped and not visible
I also ran into this problem, the exact same visual issue and it made freecad impossible to use - vanilla Arch linux with XFCE desktop. I tried a few things and managed to fix it by changing my font DPI setting from 92 to 96. Appearance>Fonts>DPI>Custom DPI setting:>96. Hope it helps someone else.

Have you tried going to preferences > General change toolbar icon size I use medium 24px, Although I still have problems with some menus whereas other can be enlarged by dragging the border.

I'm on Debian 11 and XFCE I had messed with the DPI setting before for some other program graphical glitch. Your recommendation fixed my problem.
Re: Menu and Icons are cropped and not visible
Same problem, version 0.20 from the beta snap channel on Ubuntu 20.04.
Had to change the font scaling (Fonts->Scaling Factor) from 0.90 to 1.00 in gnome tweaks.

Re: Menu and Icons are cropped and not visible
I've experienced the same issue on Ubuntu MATE 22.04 with both FreeCAD versions 0.19 and 0.20.2 and couldn't get any of the font scaling options to make all the text in the menus visible regardless of DPI scalings, but then I came across the workaround to simply turn off auto scaling in another thread https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?t=41656
On the command line, it works for me to just start freecad with the QT_AUTO_SCREEN_SCALE_FACTOR environment variable set to zero like this:
