Line in Wxmaxima not high enough to show exponent of exponent

when I type: in Wxmaxima:

exp(-x^2/2);

the result shown then in Wxmaxima cuts off the exponent of x, i.e. from 2 I see only the base line.

I am running on Lubuntu 20.4:

_wxMaxima version: 19.07.0  using wxWidgets version: wxWidgets 3.0.4  Maxima version: 5.43.2  Maxima build date: 2020-02-21 05:22:38  Host type: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu  System type: BSD BSD NIL  Lisp implementation type: GNU Common Lisp (GCL)  Lisp implementation version: GCL 2.6.12_  

Is there anything I can do to get the whole expression shown in Wxmaxima? I have asked the same question at:

https://github.com/wxMaxima-developers/wxmaxima/discussions/1521

but it looks as if there is not much traffic.

Thanks Karl
