Steps to reproduce

Thanks for all the work on Terminal.

I had previously been seeing the text display area scaling problem in issue #11317. It seems like it's gotten better, but I found a repeatable way to trigger it today with the newest store versions (1.12 and 1.13).

Let me know if you need more information.

This is my setup:
Laptop display with 3840x2160 resolution, scale = 250% (physically located on the left)
Monitor 1 with 3840x2160 resolution, scale = 150% (middle)
Monitor 2 with 3840x2160 resolution, scale = 150% (right)

Terminal set to open on laptop screen
Default profile = Command Prompt
Consolas font @ size = 11

  1. Open Terminal
  2. Do a "dir" command -- the directory display fills the window
  3. Move the window from the laptop screen to the middle monitor -- the window changes scale without distortion
  4. Resize the window by dragging the bottom right corner down and to the right a bit
  5. Move the window back to the laptop screen -- when it changes scale again, the bottom part of the text area goes missing (about 1/3)
  6. Resizing the window vertically restores the text

Expected Behavior

No missing text on display scale changes.

Actual Behavior

Part of the text area in the window disappears.
