Steps to reproduce

1. Small PowerShell window.
2. Multiline scriptblock at the prompt.

$CSDBMigrationStatus = Import-Csv -Path "$env:OneDriveCommercial\Documents\csdbMigrationPlan.csv"  # A CSV export of the latest version of the CSDB Migration Plan XLSX file
$semaphore = [System.Threading.Semaphore]::new(0,1)  # A semaphore to limit the number of threads accessing the CSDB object concurrently
$CSDBMigrationStatus | Where-Object -FilterScript { -not [string]::IsNullOrEmpty($_.'Full Path') } | ForEach-Object -ThrottleLimit $env:NUMBER_OF_PROCESSORS -Parallel {  
# Get the export.log path for the manual export
$exportPath = $_.'Full Path' -replace 'tp-gx', $($using:TpGx) | Split-Path -Parent

# Get all the XML files in the export folder
$xmls = Get-ChildItem -Path $exportPath -Filter '*.xml' | Where-Object -FilterScript {-not (Select-String -Path $_ -Pattern 'This is DRAFT data to be used only for development')} 

# Get the latest XML with the 'well' keyword
$xmlPath = $xmls | Where-Object -FilterScript { $_.BaseName -match 'well' } | Sort-Object -Descending -Property CreationTimeUtc -Top 1

# If there is no such file, get the latest XML with the same name as the export folder
if ($null -eq $xmlPath -or $xmlPath.Count -eq 0) {
  $xmlPath = $xmls | Where-Object -FilterScript { $_.BaseName -match ([regex]::Escape(($exportPath | Split-Path -Leaf))) } | Sort-Object -Descending -Property CreationTimeUtc -Top 1
}

# Look up the index of the current item in the array
$i = $($using:CSDBMigrationStatus).IndexOf($_)

# Wait for the semaphore
$($using:semaphore).WaitOne()

# Set the filename of the XML well-formed
$($using:CSDBMigrationStatus)[$i].Filename = $xmlpath.FullName -replace ([regex]::Escape($TpGx)), 'tp-gx'

# Release the semaphore
$($using:semaphore).Release()
}

1. Maximize window
2. Select all using <kbd>Ctrl</kbd> + <kbd>A</kbd>
3. Boom 💥 exception

Expected behavior

The original issue is that when I maximize, the text as displayed in the window is not the position of the editable underlying command text. That is, the maximize command isn’t able to correctly reflow the command at the command prompt to anticipate where it is in the maximized context.

This is evident by the fact that moving the cursor around does not land in the correct place corresponding to the text as rendered. (I.e., the cursor does not edit the shown text and moving the cursor around doesn’t follow the text as shown.)

To mitigate, I do a select all <kbd>Ctrl</kbd> + <kbd>A</kbd> to force the PowerShell to recalculate the text reflow. The highlighting will show be the boundaries of the text and allow me to understand how the text has moved.

Actual behavior

There is an exception thrown.

Can you paste using Ctrl+v and see if there is a difference? Also, can you also try it in a PowerShell session without loading your profile (so that the influence from your custom prompts can be ruled out)?

Nice catch! I see that the issue does not arise in pwsh -NoProfile -NoLogo (i.e., without loading my profile), so this suggests that it is only happening in conjunction with @JanDeDobbeleer ohmyposh.

You are right that I was pasting with right-click. I see the issue persists with <kbd>Ctrl</kbd>+<kbd>v</kbd> though if I am using my custom prompts.

[mavaddat]

Sure, it is the standard setup for oh-my-posh with oh-my-posh init pwsh --config "$env:POSH_THEMES_PATH/jandedobbeleer.omp.json" | Invoke-Expression in my PowerShell profile.

This is my oh-my-posh config:
