Hello everyone,
I'm trying to change colour of the "process reading" (i have no idea exactly how to call this) on my terminal. I had success on configuring a lot of things and that would be the last one. And i am stucked. To be clear what color on my terminal i want to change, here is an image. I want to change from yellow to purple.
Thank you very much!

Re: Change specific color in terminal
Well,there is no option available for that. The only option available is to change the colour of the text. The colour tab activity option doesn't change what i mentioned.Kadaitcha Man wrote: ⤴Fri Mar 26, 2021 2:54 amSo, what happens when you select Preferences on the Edit menu then switch to the Colour tab and click the colour you want to change?
I can't see anywhere a place to change that specific thing. I'm using gnome terminal by the way.
Re: Change specific color in terminal
What terminal are you using? I use all kinds of terminals and also set them to a white background, so I often have to mess with those colors since they're set up for a dark background.[kraken] wrote: ⤴Fri Mar 26, 2021 9:00 amWell,there is no option available for that.

lxterminal, xfce4-terminal and terminator all have color settings that you can change, as below: Click the yellow box and a color selector pops up. You might have to select "custom" scheme in order to change it.
Please edit your original post title to include [SOLVED] if/when it is solved!
Your data and OS are backed up....right?

Yes, that solved the problem. For some reason my brain could not interpret the word palette as part of the color scheme of the terminal. Don't ask me why.
