When the Spyder console has displayed output too wide to view, it adds a horizontal scroll bar to the bottom. This scrollbar hides the last command line of the console, and it seems I am unable to scroll down further. It's a very minor issue but it's annoying the hell out of me.

I recorded my screen to show the issue: https://youtu.be/WYuA6Zssges

Reproduce the issue:

  1. Plot a large figure like fig,ax=plt.subplots(figsize=(15,15))
  2. Try to type a new command
  3. When you can't see the command you type, try to scroll down

  • (*Spyder maintainer here*) This looks like a bug. Please open an issue in our [issue tracker](https://github.com/spyder-ide/spyder/issues), so we don't forget to address it in the future. – Carlos Cordoba Dec 05 '20 at 23:15
  • In my case, no horizontal scroll bar appears making the string wrap which is difficult to read. –  Apr 19 '21 at 14:12
  • @CarlosCordoba still having the same issue on Spyder 5.4.1. I will open the issue. – Katya Mar 07 '23 at 10:30

Might help someone as I had the same bug when writing my code file and the horizontal bar would always hide the last line of code. It's not fixed as I hoped too but I works wonders, just right click on the code file and select the "zoom out" option (⌘- on mac) and you'll be able to code normally
