Milestone
Description
Windows Terminal version
1.12.10982.0
Windows build number
Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.19043.1706]
Other Software
None
Steps to reproduce
- Start MS terminal
- Open a total of 2+ tabs
- Make sure that you're running a 'Dark' theme
- Set the color of a tab to be bright enough that the foreground text switches to black (the 'Teal' option seems to work well - it's custom color is
#05FFEE) - Focus a tab (let's call it "Tab A") and bask in the readable text. The tab color is that nice, bright teal and the text has automatically been made black, an easy-to-read, high contrast color.
- Switch to a different tab. Notice that Tab A's tab color is now very dark / dim (which is a very reasonable way to convey to the user that the tab isn't currently focused). Notice also that the text color is still black, and thus unreadable.
- Look upon incredibly low contrast, unfocused Tab A and weep, for there is no possible way to read that text.
Expected Behavior
I'd love to be able to read the text on my unfocused tabs, even if I choose a light tab color for them.
I think what might solve this is: when a tab becomes unfocused and you dim the tab go back and adjust the foreground (text) color to be white.
Actual Behavior
Foreground color remains black.
I can't read black text on a really, really dark tab.
Oh boy is it hard to see what
Cue the weeping :)
