<p>There is currently no way of changing the colour other than altering the source code.</p>
<p>The links you showed above (both are the same PR?) are proposed changes that were not accepted.</p>
<p>The current proposed changes are <a href="https://github.com/geany/geany/pull/1382">here</a> though that also has not been accepted yet.  But if you can build Geany you could apply the PR which seems to have been done successfully by the last person to comment.</p>
