I was trying to give all (round) parentheses a certain color while editing in C++. Can someone help me to achieve this? Sorry if that has been asked before.
What exactly did you try? Did you read about language grammars?

As a second question, would it be possible to give parentheses of function calls a different color, or ideally color all the text within the brackets?
Yes, to the degree that you can identify “parentheses of function calls” which is quite tricky with C++.
