Changing Console properties from VCF

[tazmania23]

Hi Everyone,

I want to change the properties of the console window within the Fortran code. Basically, I want the text to be displayed in black color and the background in white.

Try:

use DFWIN

integer:: hConsole, b

hConsole = GetStdHandle(STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE)
b = SetConsoleTextAttribute(hConsole, &
BACKGROUND_RED+ BACKGROUND_GREEN+ BACKGROUND_BLUE )

Thank you Jugoslavfor your reply. Still the background color only effects the text which is displayed and rest of the console is still black. I found an alternative way, it might help someone.

Call SystemQQ("Color F0")
