Bug Description

during install of Ubuntu daily of Focal (version 2020-02-10, desktop for AMD64) from the iso image
the screen resolution seems to be in the scale of 640x480.
with the used default desktop environment and GUI decoration
parts of the GUI window of the installer are going beyond the bottom screen border.

the window can not be adjusted further up because of the desktop bar "stopping" it there.
there is no evident method of changing the screen resolution whilst the install is in GUI mode.
the whole situation gets even more worse when the live console log control gets expanded.

i expect the installer's GUI window to stay on the screen in a whole during the install operation.
