## Background Images and Icons
|
|
|
|
|
Some Terminal settings allow you to specify custom background images and icons. It is recommended that custom images and icons are stored in system-provided folders and are referred to using the correct [URI Schemes](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/uwp/app-resources/uri-schemes). URI Schemes provide a way to reference files independent of their physical paths (which may change in the future).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The most useful URI schemes to remember when customizing background images and icons are:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| URI Scheme | Corresponding Physical Path | Use / description |
|
|
|
|
|
| --- | --- | ---|
|
|
|
|
|
| `ms-appdata:///Local/` | `%localappdata%\Packages\Microsoft.WindowsTerminal_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalState\` | Per-machine files |
|
|
|
|
|
| `ms-appdata:///Roaming/` | `%localappdata%\Packages\Microsoft.WindowsTerminal_8wekyb3d8bbwe\RoamingState\` | Common files |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> ⚠ Note: Do not rely on file references using the `ms-appx` URI Scheme (i.e. icons). These files are considered an internal implementation detail and may change name/location or may be omitted in the future.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Icons
|
|
|
|
|
Terminal displays icons for each of your profiles which Terminal generates for any built-in shells - PowerShell Core, PowerShell, and any installed Linux/WSL distros. Each profile refers to a stock icon via the `ms-appx` URI Scheme.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> ⚠ Note: Do not rely on the files referenced by the `ms-appx` URI Scheme - they are considered an internal implementation detail and may change name/location or may be omitted in the future.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can refer to you own icons if you wish, e.g.:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
|
|
|
"icon" : "C:\\Users\\richturn\\OneDrive\\WindowsTerminal\\icon-ubuntu-32.png",
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> 👉 Tip: Icons should be sized to 32x32px in an appropriate raster image format (e.g. .PNG, .GIF, or .ICO) to avoid having to scale your icons during runtime (causing a noticeable delay and loss of quality.)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Custom Background Images
|
|
|
|
|
You can apply a background image to each of your profiles, allowing you to configure/brand/style each of your profiles independently from one another if you wish.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To do so, specify your preferred `backgroundImage`, position it using `backgroundImageAlignment`, set its opacity with `backgroundImageOpacity`, and/or specify how your image fill the available space using `backgroundImageStretchMode`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For example:
|
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
|
|
|
"backgroundImage": "C:\\Users\\richturn\\OneDrive\\WindowsTerminal\\bg-ubuntu-256.png",
|
|
|
|
|
"backgroundImageAlignment": "bottomRight",
|
|
|
|
|
"backgroundImageOpacity": 0.1,
|
|
|
|
|
"backgroundImageStretchMode": "none"
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> 👉 Tip: You can easily roam your collection of images and icons across all your machines by storing your icons and images in OneDrive (as shown above).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
With these settings, your Terminal's Ubuntu profile would look similar to this:

## Background Images and Icons
|
|
|
|
|
Some Terminal settings allow you to specify custom background images and icons. It is recommended that custom images and icons are stored in system-provided folders and are referred to using the correct [URI Schemes](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/uwp/app-resources/uri-schemes). URI Schemes provide a way to reference files independent of their physical paths (which may change in the future).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The most useful URI schemes to remember when customizing background images and icons are:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| URI Scheme | Corresponding Physical Path | Use / description |
|
|
|
|
|
| --- | --- | ---|
|
|
|
|
|
| `ms-appdata:///Local/` | `%localappdata%\Packages\Microsoft.WindowsTerminal_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalState\` | Per-machine files |
|
|
|
|
|
| `ms-appdata:///Roaming/` | `%localappdata%\Packages\Microsoft.WindowsTerminal_8wekyb3d8bbwe\RoamingState\` | Common files |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> ⚠ Note: Do not rely on file references using the `ms-appx` URI Scheme (i.e. icons). These files are considered an internal implementation detail and may change name/location or may be omitted in the future.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Icons
|
|
|
|
|
Terminal displays icons for each of your profiles which Terminal generates for any built-in shells - PowerShell Core, PowerShell, and any installed Linux/WSL distros. Each profile refers to a stock icon via the `ms-appx` URI Scheme.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> ⚠ Note: Do not rely on the files referenced by the `ms-appx` URI Scheme - they are considered an internal implementation detail and may change name/location or may be omitted in the future.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can refer to you own icons if you wish, e.g.:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
|
|
|
"icon" : "C:\\Users\\richturn\\OneDrive\\WindowsTerminal\\icon-ubuntu-32.png",
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> 👉 Tip: Icons should be sized to 32x32px in an appropriate raster image format (e.g. .PNG, .GIF, or .ICO) to avoid having to scale your icons during runtime (causing a noticeable delay and loss of quality.)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Custom Background Images
|
|
|
|
|
You can apply a background image to each of your profiles, allowing you to configure/brand/style each of your profiles independently from one another if you wish.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To do so, specify your preferred `backgroundImage`, position it using `backgroundImageAlignment`, set its opacity with `backgroundImageOpacity`, and/or specify how your image fill the available space using `backgroundImageStretchMode`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For example:
|
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
|
|
|
"backgroundImage": "C:\\Users\\richturn\\OneDrive\\WindowsTerminal\\bg-ubuntu-256.png",
|
|
|
|
|
"backgroundImageAlignment": "bottomRight",
|
|
|
|
|
"backgroundImageOpacity": 0.1,
|
|
|
|
|
"backgroundImageStretchMode": "none"
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> 👉 Tip: You can easily roam your collection of images and icons across all your machines by storing your icons and images in OneDrive (as shown above).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
With these settings, your Terminal's Ubuntu profile would look similar to this:
