Octave GUI Command Window - can I increase the number of rows and columns displayed?

Viewed 1047

I'm using the Octave GUI 5.0.2 on Windows 10. Text is only displayed in the upper left portion of the window. Under the current screen resolution 25 lines are displayed, with a width of 24 characters. I have enough space to display 50 lines of text at 75 characters per line. So the last command is always displayed in the middle of the screen. Additionally I can scroll to the left to see hidden text, but makes reading difficult, e.g. 'help' output has to be continually scrolled left and right. My question - is there a command to set the number of rows and/or columns displayed in the Octave GUI?

Got it! I had changed the command window font to Lucida Console. Changed it (back) to Consola or Courier and instantly fully working again.

This seems to be related to screen resolution on multi-display systems. Can't find a fix, but resizing the workspace to approx half of my 1920*1080 makes it usable for me.
