How to change the color of the PowerShell ISE editor using command?
To change the color of the ISE Editor, we need to use $psISE cmdlet which is only available for the ISE editor.
Now in the ISE editor, we have many colors some are visible (ScriptPane color, Console Color, etc) and some appear while executing a script (Error, Warning, Verbose). These properties are as below.
ErrorForegroundColor : #FFFF9494 ErrorBackgroundColor : #00FFFFFF WarningForegroundColor : #FFFF8C00 WarningBackgroundColor : #00FFFFFF VerboseForegroundColor : #FF00FFFF VerboseBackgroundColor : #00FFFFFF DebugForegroundColor : #FF00FFFF DebugBackgroundColor : #00FFFFFF ConsolePaneBackgroundColor : #FF000080 ConsolePaneTextBackgroundColor : #FF012456 ConsolePaneForegroundColor : #FFF5F5F5 ScriptPaneBackgroundColor : #FFFFFFFF ScriptPaneForegroundColor : #FF000000
Lef side is the particular color attribute and the right side is the color name in the code. To set the Console Background color, we can use the following command, and immediately console background color will change to red.
$psISE.Options.ConsolePaneBackgroundColor = 'Red'
Output
Similarly, to change the script pane background color,
$psISE.Options.ScriptPaneBackgroundColor = 'Black'
Output
Similarly, you can set debug mode color, error, warning, verbose color, etc.
If you have messed color in ISE and want to restore back then don’t worry, there is an option DefaultOptions in the $PSISE cmdlet, Options property and there you can find the original color.
$psISE.Options.DefaultOptions
We can restore the colors using the below command.
$psISE.Options.ScriptPaneBackgroundColor = '#FFFFFFFF'
