In JupyterLab you can right click and choose: Create New View for Output.

Answer 2

This worked for me in Chrome. Run it in a separate cell. Choose the max-height you want to display without scrolling.

%%html
<style>
.output_wrapper, .output {
    height:auto !important;
    max-height:1000px;  /* your desired max-height here */
}
.output_scroll {
    box-shadow:none !important;
    webkit-box-shadow:none !important;
}
</style>

You'll still get scroll bars if the contents exceed the max-height. There won't be a shadow box, though. Just increase the max-height even more if really don't want scrolling at all.
