Screen grab showing wxMaxima menus and GUI windows

When creating a matrix with specific dimensions, such as, for example, 2 rows
and 4 columns, wxMaxima incorrectly generates a window to enter a matrix with 4
rows and 2 columns instead. This issue leads to an inversion of the intended
dimensions. The expected behavior is for the user-defined dimensions to be
respected, but the output matrix is transposed.

Steps to reproduce:
Click Matrix menu
Click Create Matrix
Click Enter Matrix...
In the Matrix window that opens up, enter 2 for rows, 4 for columns, leave
general as the pre-selected type, name it A and click OK.
The next window, Enter Matrix, comes up with 4 rows and 2 columns.

Note that:
wxMaxima version is the latest available 23.12.0,1
This issue does not occur with maxima (version also the latest available
5.47.0_20)
FreeBSD version is 14.2
I have introduced FreeBSD and wxMaxima to 25 colleagues at university and they
all experience this issue.
