MATLAB: Should “format compact” stick between sessions

MATLABmatlab gui

I didn't used to have to type "format compact" every single startup. After upgrading to 2019a, it doesn't stick. The same startup file is in use, and doesn't contain that anyway. Is it supposed to stick, and what might have changed to cause this?

Best Answer

Change the "Text display" entries in the Command Window preferences to make the changes persistent across sessions.
