Thanks, indeed after removing that file the issue is gone.
Issues like this already happen in the past, but since I do not use the GUI I did not remember where the config file was.

As for resetting your previous settings, you just need to delete "~/.config/octave/qt-settings".

"Edit" --> "Preferences" --> "Terminal" --> "Font"

Which font to you use for the console?
I noticed that Qt5 had some problem with ClearType fonts.
Try different fonts and see if that helps.

Dmitri.

Let me know if you need more info

Also, it might be that this is caused by a residual config file of the GUI. Can you tell me which files should I delete from my user account to reset all configs?

Hi,

Can you give more details about your environment: at least Qt version and screen resolution.
