I just turned on the 'show linefeed' option and it used to be a very discrete symbol of a 'return' icon, now it's "LF" backlit in a white box. Can I get the symbol back?
The line ending symbol is rendered by the Scintilla editing component, an external library. Maybe it has been changed in some Scintilla version in the past.
Do you remember in which Geany version you saw that other symbol?
Anyway, we cannot change the icon as said it is rendered by Scintilla.

Thanks for the reply Enrico, but I must confess I was getting my wires crossed, I had the 'line wrap' symbol in mind, not the 'linefeed' symbol. The former is so discrete but the later, is glaring, especially since I use a black background. It would be nice if Scintilla would give us an option there. Mind, we can edit themes ... but maybe that's a different matter. But Scintilla has yet to fix some outright errors in the way shell code is highlighted so ...

Scintilla does provide a means of setting how characters are represented https://www.scintilla.org/ScintillaDoc.html#CharacterRepresentations.
But "somebody" will have to write the code in Geany to use it.
