Console.ForegroundColor Property

Definition

Gets or sets the foreground color of the console.

Public Shared Property ForegroundColor As ConsoleColor

Property Value

A ConsoleColor that specifies the foreground color of the console; that is, the color of each character that is displayed. The default is gray.

Attributes

Exceptions

The color specified in a set operation is not a valid member of ConsoleColor.

The user does not have permission to perform this action.

An I/O error occurred.

Examples

The following example checks whether the console's background color is black and, if it is, it changes the background color to red and the foreground color to black.

using System;

public class Example
{
   public static void Main()
   {
      if (Console.BackgroundColor == ConsoleColor.Black) {
         Console.BackgroundColor = ConsoleColor.Red;
         Console.ForegroundColor = ConsoleColor.Black;
         Console.Clear();
      }
   }
}
open System

if Console.BackgroundColor = ConsoleColor.Black then
    Console.BackgroundColor <- ConsoleColor.Red
    Console.ForegroundColor <- ConsoleColor.Black
    Console.Clear()
Module Example
   Public Sub Main()
      If Console.BackgroundColor = ConsoleColor.Black Then
         Console.BackgroundColor = ConsoleColor.Red
         Console.ForegroundColor = ConsoleColor.Black
         Console.Clear()
      End If
   End Sub
End Module

The following example saves the values of the ConsoleColor enumeration to an array and stores the current values of the BackgroundColor and ForegroundColor properties to variables. It then changes the foreground color to each color in the ConsoleColor enumeration except to the color that matches the current background, and it changes the background color to each color in the ConsoleColor enumeration except to the color that matches the current foreground. (If the foreground color is the same as the background color, the text isn't visible.) Finally, it calls the ResetColor method to restore the original console colors.

using System;

class Example
{
   public static void Main()
   {
      // Get an array with the values of ConsoleColor enumeration members.
      ConsoleColor[] colors = (ConsoleColor[]) ConsoleColor.GetValues(typeof(ConsoleColor));
      // Save the current background and foreground colors.
      ConsoleColor currentBackground = Console.BackgroundColor;
      ConsoleColor currentForeground = Console.ForegroundColor;

      // Display all foreground colors except the one that matches the background.
      Console.WriteLine("All the foreground colors except {0}, the background color:",
                        currentBackground);
      foreach (var color in colors) {
         if (color == currentBackground) continue;

         Console.ForegroundColor = color;
         Console.WriteLine("   The foreground color is {0}.", color);
      }
      Console.WriteLine();
      // Restore the foreground color.
      Console.ForegroundColor = currentForeground;

      // Display each background color except the one that matches the current foreground color.
      Console.WriteLine("All the background colors except {0}, the foreground color:",
                        currentForeground);
      foreach (var color in colors) {
         if (color == currentForeground) continue;

         Console.BackgroundColor = color;
         Console.WriteLine("   The background color is {0}.", color);
      }

      // Restore the original console colors.
      Console.ResetColor();
      Console.WriteLine("\nOriginal colors restored...");
   }
}

Remarks

A get operation for a Windows-based application, in which a console does not exist, returns Gray. Unix systems don't provide any general mechanism to fetch the current console colors. Because of that, ForegroundColor returns (ConsoleColor)-1 until it is set in explicit way (using the setter).
