Hey Guys, sorry for the delayed response!
But here are the before/after pictures of what is occuring (a part of the text is cut off because it doesn't entirely fit on within the window of the QScrollArea but I think that you will be able to tell which picture has the full text and which doesn't)
Here is before:
Here is after:
-

Are you using the Qt version provided with Mint ?
Can you check with a more recent version ?
-
I blieve that the answer to these questions are already in the forum.
I understand the purpose of utilizing a more recent version; however, as stated above project requirements dictate that I use Qt version 5.9 or earlier (down to 5.6). So there is no real point in checking if the bug is fixed in more recent versions.
Now, if the bug is fixed in more recent versions, then a bug report could have been filed. If this is the case, then I would still need to search google or the community for the specific bug. For now, I can assume that the bug was fixed in later versions. So far, I haven't found a bug report that matches the bug that I am observing. But I will keep checking.
From previous posts, yes I am using the version that comes with Mint.

Before searching you should make sure it really was fixed. This is why @SGaist suggested to test with more recent version. If the bug was not fixed you will waste your time searching for the bug report.
If the bug isn't in Qt 5.13 and you can't find the bug report you can do binary search to find the Qt release were it was fixed:
You take Qt between 5.9 and 5.13 check it. If the bug is not there you check between 5.9 and that version else between that version and 5.13. Continue until you found exact version. If you have exact version you can check which patches went into it - one of them (could be more than one actually) should be the fix. -
Hello all,
Thank you for all of the help. I am pretty sure that I solved the bug. I applied the fix to a number of different forms on the interface and I haven't seen the bug pop up.
In my scrollAreaWidgetContents container, I changed the layoutSizeContraint from the default value to SetMinandMaxSize.
So far, this fix has worked for me. I will now mark this as solved.
Again, thank you all for your help. I hope that this will help someone else after me.
