Change Console window properties « Console « Essential Types

You can manipulate the cursor with the CursorLeft, CursorTop, and CursorSize properties:


using System;


class Sample
{
    public static void Main()
    {
        Console.WindowWidth = Console.LargestWindowWidth;
        Console.ForegroundColor = ConsoleColor.Green;
        Console.Write("asdf... 123%");
        Console.CursorLeft = 3;
        Console.Write("1111");
    }
}

The following example uses the properties and methods of the Console class to change the appearance of the Windows console:


using System;

public class MainClass
{
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        // Display the standard console. 
        Console.Title = "Standard Console";
        Console.WriteLine("Press Enter to change the console's appearance.");
        Console.ReadLine();
        // Change the console appearance and redisplay. 
        Console.Title = "Resized Console";
        Console.ForegroundColor = ConsoleColor.Blue;
        Console.BackgroundColor = ConsoleColor.Yellow;

        //Console.ResetColor(); 
        Console.Clear();
        Console.SetWindowSize(100, 50);
        Console.BufferHeight = 500;
        Console.BufferWidth = 100;
        Console.CursorLeft = 20;
        Console.CursorSize = 50;
        Console.CursorTop = 20;
        Console.CursorVisible = false;
        Console.WriteLine("Main method complete. Press Enter.");
        Console.ReadLine();
    }
}
