Using Geany 1.36 on Linux Mint 18.3
I am writing mostly Python code. When I do a Ctrl-f to popup a search box the background color on the highlighted term is a light gray that is hard for me to spot easily.
Is there a way to change the background color to something that is easier to see?
You can tweak it using GTK+ CSS. In a file at `~/.config/geany/geany.css` (Tools->Configuration Files->geany.css) you can put some CSS similar to the stuff between line 12 and line 26 here[0], adapted for your needs. It's hard to be specific without seeing exactly what you're talking about.
I am using the Monokai color scheme. When search finds a word it highlights it. The color it uses is a lite gray which does not show up well against the black background of the editor widow. I am looking to have it use a color that is more easily seen
If you mean the selection in the editor window, thats set by the "selection" style in your editor colour scheme.
Yes, that's what I meant. I found one close to Monokai that the selection is much easier to see.
Glad I found Geany. It gives me the features I use most without needing to figure out a bunch of obscure settings. Plus the community support is top notch.
Cheers Lex
Thanks, Jim
Alternatively, you could probably just switch GTK+ themes.

Thanks, I'll take a look at your suggestions.
