Console.ForegroundColor Propriedade

public:
 static property ConsoleColor ForegroundColor { ConsoleColor get(); void set(ConsoleColor value); };

public static ConsoleColor ForegroundColor { get; set; }

static member ForegroundColor : ConsoleColor with get, set

Public Shared Property ForegroundColor As ConsoleColor

Valor da propriedade

Um ConsoleColor que especifica a cor do primeiro plano do console; ou seja, a cor de cada caractere exibido. O padrão é cinza.

Exceções

Exemplos

O exemplo a seguir verifica se a cor da tela de fundo do console é preta e, se estiver, altera a cor da tela de fundo para vermelho e a cor do primeiro plano para preto.

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

O exemplo a seguir salva os valores da ConsoleColor enumeração em uma matriz e armazena os valores atuais das propriedades e BackgroundColor das ForegroundColor propriedades em variáveis. Em seguida, ele altera a cor do primeiro plano para cada cor na ConsoleColor enumeração, exceto para a cor que corresponde à tela de fundo atual, e altera a cor da tela de fundo para cada cor na ConsoleColor enumeração, exceto para a cor que corresponde ao primeiro plano atual. (Se a cor do primeiro plano for a mesma da cor da tela de fundo, o texto não estará visível.) Por fim, ele chama o ResetColor método para restaurar as cores originais do console.

   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) {

Comentários

Uma operação de obtenção para um aplicativo baseado no Windows, no qual um console não existe, retorna Gray. Os sistemas Unix não fornecem nenhum mecanismo geral para buscar as cores atuais do console. Por isso, ForegroundColor retorna (ConsoleColor)-1 até que seja definido de forma explícita (usando o setter).
