I am missing a feature (for 1.6.12):
I cannot adjust default the message window size at startup.
It is always about 3 lines high but 8 lines are needed as a default.
Where can one adjust it accordingly?

If not possible, this should be a feature requst then.

I'm assuming by "message window" you mean the console.

This can be done by:

  1. Close the Arduino IDE
  2. Open preferences.txt in a text editor. For the location of preferences.txt see https://www.arduino.cc/en/Hacking/Preferences
  3. Chang the value of console.lines
  4. Save preferences.txt

Currently it seems that 4 is the minimum value. It's possible this will be changed by #6130, I haven't tested it.
