Issue

Starting lxterminal with more than 83 columns only spwans a window with 83 columns.

Version affected

Running Raspberry Pi OS bullseye 64bit with PIXEL as X-Server

uname -srm
Linux 5.15.61-v8+ aarch64

lxterminal -v
lxterminal 0.4.0

Additional information

  1. Screen resolution is set to full HD
  2. There is no horizontal scrollbar
  3. I'm using the PI headless, so login happens via VNC
  4. In (old) stretch version (lxterminal v0.3) it is working fine
  5. Also with preferences and e.g. 150 columns the issue is reproducible

I suggest that the --geometry function might be removed... but i understand if the issue is jus closed due to backward compatibility

As workaround or maybe as besster said: "standard function" to manipulate/control windows I now use the windows manager control:
wmctrl -e <MVARG>
