Reduce height of Console Window and increased width of "edited file" bar in top border

ajohnsonlaird

Does anyone know how to change the preferences.txt file to reduce the default number of lines in the Console/Error window when P3 first starts up, please?

I'm running on an iMac 5K so I've tweaked the preferences.txt file to read:

editor.window.height.default=1500
:
editor.window.width.default=1700

However there are two lines in preferences.txt that are of apparent interest

console.length=500
console.lines=3

The first appears to be the buffer size for console output and I'm not sure what the second (console.lines) actually does. I'm aware of the thread **here**, but it doesn't apparently answer the question (it seems to provide a freestanding console window based on speed reading the code).

Also, on the 5K screen at 3200 x 1800, the "file edited" vertical bar between the .pde file tabs is very hard to see when it changes color. I don't see any parameter in either preferences.txt or theme.txt that purports to increase the width of that colored bar. Is there one and I'm just not seeing it, please?

Thanks in advance,

Andy
