Simple questions, possibly more difficult answers...when I begin to type a command I have a preview/auto completion. I'm wondering how I can change the font color (too dark). I included screenshot for context

Actually it turned out this was an "oh my zshell" settings, so all I needed to do was export the ZSH_AUTOSUGGEST_HIGHLIGHT_STYLE within the .zshrc like so:

export ZSH_AUTOSUGGEST_HIGHLIGHT_STYLE="fg=100"

This brightened up the suggestion nicely so that I could actually read it:

  • The `fg=100` did not work for me. I settled down on `fg=50`. Feel free to try variations and use what's required. Good find though! – siddhantsomani Aug 13 '20 at 20:19
  • `fg=100` and `fg=50` didn't do anything. Only values in the range `0-7` changed the color of the autocomplete text for me. The opacity or shading of the original color didn't change for me. This still worked for me since having a different autocomplete color is actually better than what I was originally looking for (just lowering the brightness of the text) – Cameron Gagnon Jun 01 '21 at 18:19

You need to adjust the theme colors in the Settings options for iTerm.
