Windows Terminal version (or Windows build number)

1.7.1033.0

Other Software

No response

Steps to reproduce

  1. Press Ctrl+Shift+P. The Command Palette opens.
  2. Scroll to the "Select color scheme…" item and click that. The Command Palette displays a list of color schemes.
  3. Press Backspace. The list of color schemes disappears, but the "Select color scheme…" title is still visible.
  4. Type cmd. Do not press Enter.

Expected Behavior

It should tell me what will happen if I press Enter.

Executing command line will invoke the following commands:
New tab, commandline: cmd

Actual Behavior

The dim "Select color scheme…" title overlaps the description of the command line.

Ooh, good point. I see two options:

  • disable backspacing the > in a nested entry.
  • Entering commandline mode in a nested entry should pop the nested entries stack. That should get rid of the "< Select color scheme..." element.
