"Run" console does not print everything - cuts long string after half of it was printed
Could not find anything regarding this issue via search.
I'm normally use the "Run" console ("Emulate terminal in output console"). I use some print() statements to debug my code, they print some json I fetched from the internet. The json can have like 30k characters. Using print() will only print a part then simply cut the rest. So I see the beginning until at one point it just cuts.
I can recreate this problem by just using print() on a string with 24k characters. PyCharm "Run" will cut it after ~12k chars. If it's 20k chars, it will cut after ~10k chars, 18k -> 9k and if it's 13k chars it prints everything. It basically only prints half.
I edited `idea.cycle.buffer.size` to a big value 999999 or to 'disabled', but that does not change anything.
If I "Run with Python Console", it works fine.
Is this a bug that the "Run" console cannot output that many characters in a single print() ?
Thank you

Hello,
I have tried to reproduce it with this code:
But the numbers were printed out as should, could you please provide me with your example?
Thank you for your answer.
See screenshot - it cuts.

PyCharm 2020.1 is not supported for Windows 7, please see https://www.jetbrains.com/help/pycharm/quick-start-guide.html
You can try previous versions, for example 2019 - this should work. https://www.jetbrains.com/pycharm/download/other.html
After some testing, I found the issue.
In the "Run Configuration" -> "Execution" you have basically three options:
1) Select nothing
2) [ ] Emulate terminal in console
3) [ ] Run with Python Console
My bug occurs only, when "Emulate terminal in console" is selected. If I select nothing, it works fine.
And yes just for the sake of it, it has nothing to do with W7 I tested the old version (and I had this issue anyway with 2019).
EDIT: My cmd.exe buffer is set to quite a high value. If I save the output from the code above to a text file and then "cat" it in cmd.exe, it prints everything.
EDIT2: Seems I'm not the only one who had/has this issue: https://stackoverflow.com/a/59871058/2441026
Got it,
Please try to run the code I have provided as an example, from cmd. Will you get the same result?
Saving the code to a .py file and running it via cmd will print all 24k numbers and I can scroll up and see every number up to the beginning.
