Console.SetBufferSize() Method in C# - GeeksforGeeks

Last Updated : 11 Jul, 2025

is used to set the height and width of the screen buffer area to the specified values.

Syntax: public static void SetBufferSize(int width, int height); Parameters: width: It sets the width of the buffer area measured in the form of columns. height: It sets the height of the buffer area measured in the form of rows. Return value: The new size of the buffer screen.

• ArgumentOutOfRangeException: If the height or width is less than or equal to zero Or height or width is greater than or equal to MaxValue. Also, if the width is less than WindowLeft + WindowWidth or height is less than WindowTop + WindowHeight then we will get the same exception.
• IOException: If an I/O error occurred.

As you will see via the horizontal and the vertical scrollbars in the below examples, as we give different dimensions, we get differently sized windows.

// C# program to demonstrate
// the  SetBufferSize Method
using System;
using System.Text;
using System.IO;

class GFG {

    // Main Method
    public static void Main()
    {

        // using the method
        Console.SetBufferSize(800, 800);
        Console.WriteLine("Start");
        while (true) 
        {
            Console.WriteLine("Great Geek's Example!!!");
        }
    } // end Main
}

        Console.WriteLine("The Width's value is too less!");
    } // end Main

        Console.WriteLine("The negativity of this height is unbearable!");
    } // end Main
}
