The Console.MoveBufferArea() method in C# is used to copy a specified source area of the screen buffer to a specified destination area.

Syntax

The syntax is as follows −

using System;
class Demo {
   public static void Main (string[] args) {
      Console.WriteLine("Demo text!");
      Console.MoveBufferArea(0, 0, Console.BufferWidth, Console.BufferHeight, 20, 20);
   }
}
