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.

Alternatively, you could probably just switch GTK+ themes.

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