Introducing the next update of Windows Terminal Preview, which will appear in Windows Terminal in August. You can download Windows Terminal Preview and Windows Terminal from or from the releases page on .
Check it out below for the latest updates!
Focus mode
The presented function hides the tabs and the title bar. In this mode, only the contents of the terminal are displayed. To enable focus mode, you can add a key binding for toggleFocusMode in settings.json.
{ "command": "toggleFocusMode", "keys": "shift+f11" }
Always on top of all windows
In addition to focus mode, you can make Windows Terminal Preview always appear on top of all windows. This can be done using the global parameter alwaysOnTop or by setting the key binding with the command toggleAlwaysOnTop.
// Global setting
"alwaysOnTop": true
// Key binding
{ "command": "toggleAlwaysOnTop", "keys": "alt+shift+tab" }New commands
New keybinding commands have been added to improve the interaction with the Terminal.
Set tab color
Now you can set the color of the active tab with the command setTabColor. This command uses the property color, which accepts a color value in hexadecimal, i.e. #rgb or #rrggbb.
{ "command": { "action": "setTabColor", "color": "#ffffff" }, "keys": "ctrl+a" }
Change tab color
Team added openTabColorPicker, which allows you to open the tab color selection menu. If you're more used to using the mouse, you can right-click on the tab as before to access the Color Picker.
{ "command": "openTabColorPicker", "keys": "ctrl+b" }
Renaming a tab
You can rename the active tab with the command renameTab (thank !). Again, if you're more used to using the mouse, you can right-click it or double-click a tab to rename it.
{ "command": "renameTab", "keys": "ctrl+c" }
Switch to retro effect
You can now switch to and from the retro effect of the Terminal using keybindings and the command toggleRetroEffect.

Cascadia Code font weight
now supports various styles. You can enable them in Windows Terminal Preview using the option . Special thanks to our font designer Aaron Bell () for that!

Command palette update
The command palette is almost complete! We are currently fixing some bugs, but if you are impatient, you can add the command commandPalette to your key bindings and invoke the palette from the keyboard. If you find any errors, please report them to us at !
{ "command": "commandPalette", "keys": "ctrl+shift+p" }
Settings User Interface
Now we are actively working on the interface for Settings. The design can be found below, and the specification .
