Environment

Windows: 19042
Windows Terminal: 1.3.2651.0

Steps to reproduce

Is there a way to increase or reduce the scrollbuffer number of lines available?

Expected behavior

I would think the following would be the correct method:
Settings cog > with appropriate keywords and syntax, insert appropriate lines amount (with defined limit).

Or I would expect to find info about it on a page similar to this, or on the msdocs for windows terminal: https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/terminal/issues/6

Actual behavior

Confession, I was a little aimless.
I sifted through issues about scrollbuffer and lines, read the docs on msdocs and had a good hunt around.
It could be my misunderstanding.

Thanks for your time.
