Is there a way (setting files, registry, code, ...) to define opening size and position of the Console window in ArcPad 10?

On a TabletPC the Console insists on opening in the lower right corner of the screen, covering only the twelfth part of the display. Naturally (to get a glimse on the information), the next step after opening the Console window will be resizing and repositioning. Unfortunately, the result is *not* remembered. Even if the Console still is open, its Window will first be resized to "stamp-size" before displaying the new information.

If there is no (however "ugly") workaround, I can order the next stack of display protection films right away... 😞

I can postpone the purchase of new protection films. 🙂 Following workaround is sufficient for my current needs:

hWnd = System.FindWindow(, Console.Caption, True) System.ShowWindow hWnd, 3


It maximizes the Console inside the main ArcPad Window. Still, just a "workaround". IMHO, the Console object needs additional functionality...
