Arduino IDE 2.3.6 arbitrarily clears the output and serial monitor

When I close the MacBook display and reopen it, the IDE (2.3.6) arbitrarily clears the output tab and serial monitor, and it's the same as when I started it.

If this is the intended function, I think it would be like deleting user information without permission, which is unacceptable.

I reverted back to 2.3.4 and hope this issue will be fixed.

My environment

  • MacBook Pro (Intel Mac) / MacOS 11.7.10(Big Sur)
  • Arduino IDE 2.3.6

Before closing display


After opening display


(note: I skipped to update "ESP32 by Espressif v3.2.0". Therefore, a dialog prompting to update the board package will be displayed at startup.)

What exactly do you mean by

What actions are you performing to do this ?
