I have tried colorama
, termcolor
and printy
.
When I run the application in debug method, the text isn't formatted.
This wasn't the case, when I built a C# Console application in VS.
Here is the code using printy
.
from printy import printy
printy("Hello world", "rBU")
Output:
[38;5;196;1;4mHello world[0m
I have tried a few no-package solutions from here, but no luck. How do I print colored text to the terminal?
Is there any VS setting to configure?
@moduloking's answer here worked for me.
Here are the steps I have implemented:
1. Open the Registry editor. [Press Win + R, type regedit and press Enter]
2. Navigate to this path: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\\Console
3. Right-click the Console key, select New
and DWORD (32-bit) Value
4. Name the DWORD
that you made VirtualTerminalLevel
5. Right-click the name, pressing Modify..., set the Value data to 1
.
6. Save the changes and close the editor.
7. In your code, add this import statement - from colorama import Fore
, just_fix_windows_console
8. Add a method to test, something like this:
def print_formatted_text() -> None:
just_fix_windows_console()
print(Fore.RED, "red text")
9. Run your application and verify if it works!
10. Add the just_fix_windows_console()
in the initializing method of the code,
if the entire program needs formatted text.
