[Bug 1738693] [NEW] Gnome Terminal 3.18.3 removes lines from terminal when resized

 

Public bug reported:

If you are using a long prompt in ZSH that does not fit on a single line
when resized. When you resize the window from full screen to the
original size, you will loose the previous line of text.

Toggling fullscreen multiple times will remove multiple lines. This does
not appear to happen if the prompt fits with in the resized screen.

This also does not happen while using BASH or while using xterm.
