In the run/debug configuration that will be used for launching the app, click the Logs tab. The Edit Log Files Aliases table displays the list of log files. Select Save console output to file Specify the path to the file.
If you are using the Framebuffer console, it's possible to use the fbcon=scrollback: parameter at boot time to increase the size of the scrollback.
We can open the terminal window with ⌥F12 on macOS, or Alt+F12 on Windows and Linux. The terminal supports all the same commands that the operating system supports.
The settings for the terminal window buffer size can be found in the IntelliJ registry.
You can find the registry through ctrl+shift+A and type Reg (or from the menu Help->Find Action...). You should see Registry... Click that.
Scroll down the registry and search for terminal.buffer.max.lines.count (you can also start typing 'term', it will take you there). It is set to 1000 lines out of the box, set it to what ever size suits you...
UPDATE FOR LATER VERSIONS OF Intellij
You can change the terminal scrollback buffer size here:
File » Settings » Advanced Settings » Terminal
You have to scroll down quite a way on the Advanced Settings page to get to Terminal but you should see Terminal scrollback buffer size:

Unfortunately not for the terminal, but for the console in Intellij IDEA Ultimate 2019.1:
"File" => "Settings..." => "Editor" => "General" => "Console" "Override console cycle buffer size" from its default value of 1024kB to your needs.
