When I maximize the terminal, the display becomes like this and text won't expand to entire screen. All the content/text is only visible on top left side of the window while it's maximized.

All the text should expand to full width of the terminal.How can I resolve this?

    Not sure what you mean, looks quite normal to me. Jan 12, 2016 at 7:27

Nano won't automatically resize to the new resolution. I.e. you need to exit and re-open nano, then it will fill the entire screen.

  • I can't exit. Because this terminal through a custom launcher. And that is not full screen by default...

  • And it's not only for nano. It's for usual command interface as well... and everything output of the programs.

  • The launcher may be specifying the terminal size. If thats the case resizing the window will not help.
