Description
For some reason the serial terminal scrolls in both X and Y direction, I would love a drop-down to configure it to scroll only in Y, X or both, currently it's rather annoying to use.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by locating the Arduino IDE 1.x Serial Monitor implementation and its current autoscroll behavior. Add a user-facing choice for X-only, Y-only, or both axes, and verify that scrolling follows the selected setting.
