That's a bug in VSCode not handling the inverted ANSI correctly. Can you open an issue there?

[floh96]

@JanDeDobbeleer sorry to bother you could you open the issue i think you could it explain better :)

[JanDeDobbeleer]

That's a good idea. I'll do it tomorrow with a proper sample they can use to reproduce this.

See microsoft/vscode#111762 for more context

Hi,

I have the same issue in the Windows Terminal App from the Microsoft Store.

Windows Terminal - Version: 1.4.3243.0 (from Microsoft Store)
Powershell - 7.1.0 (from Microsoft Store)
Windows 10 - 19042.685

Did you experienced something similar in the Terminal App with Acrylic Effect set to on?

Cheers

Andre

Yeah when I'm setting "useAcrylic": true, the transparent effekt is not working like in vscode.
Could you file an issue in the terminal repository?
Since vscode is using some things from the terminal repository for it's terminal maybe it's a terminal problem?

@floh96 Sure, I can do... but I'm not an expert on terminal and coding. Could you give me a hint which function is not working in terminal?
Is it the same as in VSCode? Or should it use some transparency acrylic effect it doesn't?

[floh96]

@aessing I'm also no expert 😄 I guess it's the same issue as in microsoft/vscode#111762 maybe @JanDeDobbeleer can help?

There’s another issue I’ve been meaning to look at which has this exact context. See #250.
