console2 - how to make it fullscreen?

Is there any way to make console2 go fullscreen? I edit sett开发者_运维问答ings and increase window and buffer size but when I restart settings are reset to 63 rows in window size.

I've found that the maximise button is disabled, but you can get around it by setting Run option of the executable's shortcut to Maximised.

Better yet you can hide the window title bar in Console2's settings (Appearance > More... > Caption).

Here's the final result:

So, I've found this fork of Console2 which is amazingly better, it's called ConsoleZ:

Besides the maximization, it provides find in tabs, fullscreen mode and split tabs. Totally worth to check it out, IMHO.

EDIT

Forgot to mention, you can just download and replace the binaries, and all your configurations will be kept, as far as I've perceived.

OK I managed to do it on win7 but still no luck on XP. This is how I did it.

• In Settings→Behavior, check the Initial position checkbox and left the X and Y as default 0
• Restart console
• After restart, resize window dragging the borders to fill whole screen
• Restart again
• In Settings→Appearance→More uncheck Caption and Border

I don't know why just entering rows and columns doesn't work. One has to resize the window and restart.

On my screen with this font it is 62 rows (with space left for tabs on bottom) and 238 columns. I have 24" monitor. I set font to be Consolas size 11.

You can change the number of rows to change tab settings.
Click "Edit"->"Setting"->"Tabs" and click "Add" button. Then, the new entry which name is "Console" appears in the tab name list. In the main tab menu on the bottom, input these two parameters in the fields.

• Title: Cygwin
• Shell: C:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe --login -i

At last, move up the "Cygwin" entry to the top and restart console2. Now you can change the number of rows.

The detail how to configure tab settings is here.

In order to make Console2 have the desired window size (even when opening a new tab which generally causes the entire app's window to resize to smaller), do the following:

1. View -> Console Window
2. In the console window that pops up, right-click its title bar and select Properties
3. Set the window width/height and buffer sizes as you like and click OK

I founded a small program called, sizer 3.34, that configure the window size of every program window you have.

When installed, it apears at the popup menu, when you click with the secundary mouse button at the top bar of a window. It allows you to config the three size profiles it has, and to add one, or more, if you want.

I think is a good solution for this issue (and for another programms that would have the same problem).
