[Github-comments] [geany/geany] C++ template parameters (#1084)

[elextr]

Do you mean highlighted?

Highlighting is a syntactic construct, but names being parameters or types or variables or whatever is a semantic construct.  

The type highlighting works for for C where type names do not overlap with other names, but in C++ you will find all occurrences of the name are type coloured, even if they are not a type in the specific context.  This is because the syntactic highlighting has no concept of the semantics.

So it is not possible with the current system design.
