Is there a way to change the default size of the IDE window? On my laptop it is too tall. In Version 1.x it was settable in a preferences file. I find nothing similar in Version 2.
I looked in the ctrl-shift-p preferences, but found nothing.
Unfortunately I don't think there is currently any setting for the window size. There is an existing feature request for such a setting here:

type: enhancement
topic: code
### Describe the request
If I open a sketch and resize the window, stop IDE2,… and start IDE2, then the window size is restored. All works as expected.
However, when I set my preferred window size and open an example, create a new sketch, etc., the default hard-coded window size will be used for the new window. It feels like the user has no control over the window size, and adjusting for every sketch is tedious.
I would like to tune this with an Arduino preference/setting. If this new setting is true, the window dimension of the current would be used for the new window instead of the default dimension.
### Describe the current behavior
See the request above 👆 but in a nutshell, every new window has the default hard-coded size.
