The color schemes only apply when the console application is actually using colors.

I can see that the font in your terminal matches the font in the preview. It stands to reason that the other settings have been applied as well!

The sample text in the preview is for illustrative purposes. Terminal will not configure your shell to use those colors.

Hmm I see. The problem was in between the monitor and the chair's headrest. I'll look into this more. Thanks!
