Description

  • I am on the latest Hyper.app version
  • I have searched the issues of this repo and believe that this is not a duplicate
  • OS version and name: Windows 10 17746
  • Hyper.app version: 2.0.0
  • Link of a Gist with the contents of your .hyper.js: .hyper.js
  • Relevant information from devtools (CMD+ALT+I on macOS, CTRL+SHIFT+I elsewhere): N/A
  • The issue is reproducible in vanilla Hyper.app: Is Vanilla

Issue

It seems hyper is displaying all black background as transparent, ignoring whether is intended or not. For example in this image, the color behind the username should match the black of the arrow: (zsh:oh-my-zsh:agnoster)
image

I'm not sure if this is fixable as it seems both powershell & cmd fill their windows with a 'default' color, but perhaps we could switch the background color to a less commonly used color than black?

(This seems badly written, but I'm not sure how to explain - just ask about anything I haven't made clear)

Research direction

No source file or test is named. Reproduce the mismatch on Windows 10 with Hyper 2.0.0 and the vanilla configuration, comparing the black background behind the username with the arrow; done means intended black backgrounds render with matching colors in the affected terminal environments.
