Custom text color in C# console application? (9 answers)

Closed 8 years ago.

I'm writing a small text-based adventure in C# that uses the command prompt for everything, and I'm looking for a way to change the colour of outputted text. None of the methods I've looked at have worked properly.

Answer 1

Console.ForegroundColor = ConsoleColor.DarkRed;

Should work fine.

Answer 2

try this:

Console.ForegroundColor = ConsoleColor.Blue;
Console.WriteLine("blue.");

Read more about Console.ForegroundColor you can also change background of text: Console.BackgroundColor

Answer 3

What you looking for is Console.BackgroundColor and Console.ForegroundColor properties.

For example;

Console.BackgroundColor = ConsoleColor.Black;
Console.ForegroundColor = ConsoleColor.Blue;
Console.WriteLine("This is blue!!");
