### Property

# Vte Terminal:scrollback-lines

#### Declaration

    property scrollback-lines: guint [ read, write ]

#### Description [src]

The length of the scrollback buffer used by the terminal. The size of the scrollback buffer will be set to the larger of this value and the number of visible rows the widget can display, so 0 can safely be used to disable scrollback. Note that this setting only affects the normal screen buffer. For terminal types which have an alternate screen buffer, no scrollback is allowed on the alternate screen buffer.

Note that any value greater or equal to `G_MAXINT` is interpreted as unlimited scrollback, i.e. like `-1` when passed to vte_terminal_set_scrollback_lines(), and the value of this property for unlimited scrollback is `G_MAXUINT`.
