Originally created by @vincentmathis on GitHub (Oct 24, 2020).

Environment

Windows build number: 10.0.18363.0
Windows Terminal version (if applicable): 1.3.2651.0

Steps to reproduce

In settings set colorScheme: "One Half Light" and enter any command with a dot or select any text:

One Half Light

How it looks in One Half Dark:

One Half Dark

Expected Behavior

Text and text selection should be easily visible.

Notes

The background color is #FAFAFA while the bright text color is #FCFCFC according to colorpicker.

The same problem is visible in Solarized Light.

Setting a custom colorscheme where brightWhite is set to something dark turns the .Milliseconds part dark.

@DHowett commented on GitHub (Oct 24, 2020):

This is, unfortunately, by design. The shell (in this case PowerShell as configured through Set-PSReadlineOption) and the color scheme have to cooperate, and right now PowerShell is explicitly asking for "bright white" (97m).

MemberColor                            : "`e[97m"

Unfortunately, color schemes are not immediately fungible. You'll need to do some configuring to make the color-emitting application more suitable for your needs. 😄

Any workaround? Text selection and find results (Ctrl+F) are barely visible in light themes.

I found this works well for lightbackground themes:

"selectionBackground": "#000000"
