If you want a dark background colour, it's probably a good idea to download one of the "dark" colour schemes from the Geany website, so that your text remains legible against the background.

Dear All,

In attachment there is a picture. my question is which settings should
I  modify  if I want to change the background color. 

I know in "edit/preference/terminal" , I can change the terminal
window's background color( domain 2).  but how to change the main
writing window ( domain 1), the 'white color' looks uncomfortable.
    

Just edit your ~/.config/geany/filedefs/filetypes.common accordingly to
what color you like. If it's not there you can copy it from
$prefix/share/geany which usually is /usr/share/geany.
See also the manual [1]  and in special the section "Special file
filetypes.common" [2] for more information.
