Edit 0xc0c0c0 to the colour you want and set the last false to true.
A weird thing with this is, at least when using the colour schemes support, when you have selected text and then open a modal dialog, the selection colours revert to some default grey colour which causes the OP's issues anyway. I haven't had time to pin down where the problem comes from, but I think it might be in Scintilla (and/or geany-themes).
Hi Matthew,
I don't think filetypes.common applies outside text in the Scintilla window, the normal dialogs and everything else is GTK theming using .gtkrc, see the manual for more info.
Sorry, I wasn't very clear. I meant the selection colour in Scintilla changes to some light grey colour when it loses focus, maybe only when a modal dialog is opened to steal focus, maybe only when using colour schemes support (or only visible then).
I did confirm that Colomban sees this also, but we only spent a short time looking for the problem and came up with nothing. My initial suspicions pointed to here[1] (based almost entirely on the comments) but hacking around there and a few other places didn't seem to fix it.
