lxterminal scrollback buffer size

I searched online for how to set the scrollback buffer size for lxTerminal, but the man page is mysteriously quite simple, missing any useful information. Is there a way to configure lxterminal to use a large scrollback buffer?

It's configurable via the preferences dialog

dialog showing Preferences

in the Display tab (where you can scroll the number up, or just fill in a large number which will be limited to 100000):

dialog showing Scrollback lines

Regarding documentation - it uses VTE (same comment applies).
