Problem description:
When I have a foreground and a background color for the same text, sometimes the foreground color will not be shown.
Expected behavior:
The foreground color and background color both show up (e.g. red text on a yellow background).
Actual behavior:
The foreground color is set to black.
Steps to reproduce:
print("\x1b[31m\x1b[41mHello\x1b[0m")
# Should be red text on red background, thus making the text not appear.
# Actual: black text on red background.
Browser/OS/Device:
All (as far as I know)
Replit ANSI is confusing. Try this:
def custom(fg, bg=[]):
"""Builds a custom color from an RGB Value"""
if bg:
return f"\033[38;2;{fg[0]};{fg[1]};{fg[2]}m\033[48;2;{bg[0]};{bg[1]};{bg[2]}m"
else:
return f"\033[38;2;{fg[0]};{fg[1]};{fg[2]}m"
print(custom([255, 0, 0], [255, 0, 0])+"Hello")
# red text, red background.
and let me know if that works
lol replit ANSI codes are so scuffed
I didn’t change the ansi code foreground, but merely changing the background will change the foreground lol
Yes, that’s what the bug report is about.
