Change left margin in a console app C#

Question

I have a console app and I already changed the Console.Out.NewLine = "\r\n\r\n"; but now I would like to change the left margin, the cursor position in all my app just one time, ´cause I repeat Console.SetCursorPosition many times. Is it possible? Thanks.

You might also like to take a look at the log4net project, although that might be overkill for what you're doing. — Matthew Strawbridge, Mar 31 '13 at 10:46

you can use use \t for left margin, you can check here more escape character in c#.

Console.WriteLine("\t\t\t text with left margin");

This would require OP to change *every* logging statement. I think Lindsay wanted to change the left margin globally with a single method call. (But then this *has* been accepted as the answer, so who knows?) – Matthew Strawbridge Mar 31 '13 at 10:51
