</div>Don't know how the theme affects this?? What does a fresh version on<br>
the actual workstation do? After all a VM may not have tweaks you<br>
added to your normal environment and certainly does not have same GUI<br>
drivers.<br></blockquote><div><br></div></div></div><div>The thing is, if I copy away the filetypes.python I use, or copy one from /usr/share/geany</div><div>to .config/geany/filedefs and restart Geany, it behaves as expected, what I labled 'Editor'-Style.</div>
<div><br></div><div>So even considering the differences between a VM and the actual workstation, I can change the behavior</div><div>even on the workstation alone. And the trigger seems to be using a different filetypes.python. So let me rephrase:</div>
<div><br></div><div>When changing the filetypes.python I use, the behavior changes. I always quit Geany before I make changes</div><div>like that and start it only after it's finished. the identifiers attribute was not set as well as the lexer_properties section</div>
<div>was not defined. I took those from the /usr/share/geany file and added them. I also changed certain colors, to have</div><div>a more dark blue background. But again, the behavior is 'usual' style.</div><div>

</div>This works for me, did you force the preference to apply to already<br>
open documents? Just setting the preference won't change the setting<br>
for already open documents unless you force it (see note at top of<br>
preference page)</blockquote><div><br></div></div><div>Do you refer to</div><div><a href="http://www.geany.org/manual/current/index.html#preferences" target="_blank">http://www.geany.org/manual/current/index.html#preferences</a></div>
<div><br>
</div><div>and the statement about changes under the 'Document' Tab?</div><div><br></div><div>Anyway, I restarted Geany after changing settings. They showed up as I set there.</div><div><br></div><div>Preferences Dialog -> Editor TAB Indentation: Type Spaces</div>
<div><br></div><div>But don't seem to apply. Just to be sure, we are talking about the same:</div><div>A sample, I have 'Show whitespaces' active at all times:</div><div><br></div><div>. . . . if xmldoc.getElementsByTagName('ns3:message') == 'broken symlink': <hitting enter results in></div>
<div>----->---->print "The symlink is broken"</div><div><br></div><div>However, I've just had a look at the options under the Documents Tab and found that </div><div><br></div><div>Indent Type</div><div>
<br></div><div>was set to Tabs and space although my Settings in the Preferences Dialog show it as spaces.</div><div>Changing it there, solves this. It also keeps this set after restarting Geany. Though this is the opposite of</div>
<div>what it say's in the Geany manual:</div><div><br></div><div>"The settings under the Document menu, however, are only for the current document and revert to defaults when restarting Geany."</div><div><br>
</div><div>So I'm not sure whether this is a bug or just a 'glitch', but changing the filetypes.python changed this behavior as well.</div><div><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">

<br>
</div>Again don't see how this is to do with the theme, more likely system<br>
configuration being different to the VM.</blockquote><div><br></div></div><div>Also again, any suggestions on which system config element could possibly influence the</div><div>behavior of the editor? I purged and reinstalled Geany, put the filetypes.* back in place</div>
<div>and started the Editor, same picture. Though I have to admit, that the purging seems not</div><div>to have been as thorough as I wished. After starting the editor, the last opened files reappeared.</div><div>

</div>See comment above, behaves as you describe even with pref changed<br>
unless the change is applied to the open file.<br></blockquote><div><br></div></div><div>I'll gibe the version 0.20 a try. Lets see what this brings.</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks again.</div><div>Phil</div><div>
