Same happens with ptpython too (in lack of screenshots ;) ).

In bellow shot default color setting for MS PS is shown. Background color is not detected correctly. It seems like it is expected ColorTable00 to be background, but I don't really know much about terminals...

Of course, it doesn't matter that this is PS shell. If I select background color other the ColorTable00 for cmd shell - same result.

Hi @klonuo Can you please try to install the latest prompt_toolkit? pip install -U prompt_toolkit. Normally, this should be fixed now. Please let me know if this is not the case.

Looks great. Thanks

There is small issue though... If I try to change console background while ptpython is running, it wont allow - ptpython seems to reset background to the background when it was initialized.
