Since I updated to QT 5 (Ubuntu 16.04), all applications (VLC, TexStudio, Texmaker ...) that use QT 5 have problems scaling, and every time I disconnect my laptop from the external screen , the incons and fonts are big and pixalated.
If any one had the same issue or is familiar with the problem, I would appreciate the help.

I had a similar issue, I believe, and I managed to decrease font size for VLC and TexStudio by installing the Qt5 configuration tool, using the steps outlined here:
http://www.webupd8.org/2015/11/configure-qt5-application-style-icons.html
(Note: restart the system after including export QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME="qt5ct" in ~/.profile.)
Then in Qt5ct I set the font size to 8.
I'm new here, and to Ubuntu, so this might not be the best solution. Let me know if it answers your question or if it works for you.
