Changing the default size of iTerm2 when it opens

I feel like this is a pretty stupid question but I Googled it and played around with it and still didn't figure it out so here we go:

When I open iTerm2, it opens in a default size. How can I set it to open in a different window size?

Solution 1:

The easiest way to have iTerm2 open with a specific size, position and number of windows is:

• Get it all set up the way you'd like to see it when it opens. Have all your iTerm2 windows sized and place where you like them.
• From the top menu select Window -> Save Window Arrangement and give it a name
• Go to the Preferences and under the Arrangements section find the named arrangement, select it and press the Set Default button

• Go to the General page and select Open default window arrangement

Now, when you start iTerm2, it'll use your saved arrangement to place, size and create the number of windows you saved. You can adjust the settings any time by placing things as you like them and re-saving the default arrangement.
