Given the normal Console in C#, the task is to change the CursorSize of the Console. Approach: This can be done using the CursorSize property in the Console class of the System package in C#. It gets or sets the height of the cursor within a character cell in percentage. Program 1: Getting the value of CursorSize csharp
// C# program to illustrate the
// Console.CursorSize Property
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;

namespace GFG {

class Program {

    static void Main(string[] args)
    {

        // Get the CursorSize
        Console.WriteLine("Current CursorSize: {0}",
                                Console.CursorSize);
    }
}
}
Output: Program 2: Setting the value of CursorSize csharp

class Program {

    // Main Method
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {

        // Get the CursorSize
        Console.WriteLine("Current CursorSize: {0}",
                                Console.CursorSize);

        // Set the CursorSize
        Console.CursorSize = 100;

        // Get the CursorSize
        Console.Write("Current CursorSize: {0}",
                            Console.CursorSize);
    }
}
}
