[RoyalTS v7] Color Palette Overwrite Not Working Globally For Putty Terminal Plugin

Questions Royal TS (for Windows)
1

Hello,

I recently upgraded from RoyalTS v6 (portable) to v7 (portable) and I face the issue, that I can’t overwrite my putty terminal color settings anymore.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Set putty as you default terminal plugin:

View -> Plugins -> Terminal -> Terminal (Based on Putty) -> Set to default

  1. Test a ssh-connection - background should be black:

  2. Change color palette for the plugin:

View -> Plugins -> Terminal -> Terminal (Based on Putty) -> “Press the little dropdown arrow” -> Overwrites -> Colors -> Palette -> Choose e.g. Solarized

  1. Save + Restart RoyalTS

  2. Test a ssh-connection - background is still black

Changing the colors per ssh-connection works:

  1. Right-Click your ssh-connection -> Properties -> Colors -> Palette -> Choose e.g. Solarized

  2. Test a ssh-connection - background is orange

Is there another global setting to change the colors in the RoyalTS v7 putty plugin which I did not see? Or is this a bug?

Best regards

Gudrun

Hi Gudrun!

By default, overrides are only applied while holing the Alt key while connecting. You can change this behavior here:

Does this help?

Hi Stefan,

thank you for the hint.

I changed:
View -> Options -> Behaviors -> Modifiers -> Dropdown: “Always apply, except when holding the Alt key”

Now it works perfect :slight_smile:

Best regards,

Gudrun
