I'm on Geany 1.33 on Debian Buster and I was looking for a way to save these files in `/var/tmp` so that they are preserved between reboots or system crashes. Defining `TMPDIR` really works, but setting it to anything other than '/tmp' for all applications is generally undesirable. The user would normally want to configure it only for Geany. This requires modifying the files that are managed by the system's package manager (the desktop shortcut or the executable, which must be replaced by a script that defines the variable and then calls the executable), which makes updating Geany and the entire system complicated and prone to errors. I would like to ask for these options in the Instant Save plug-in configuration panel:
- Default system temporary directory
- Custom directory: `[input field]`

-Most other fonts render underscores appropriately
-Changing font size/zoom will cause fonts to appear depending on the setting, even with Monospace Regular font

Followed instruction to install plugins which appeared to run smoothly.
However the menu option under edit - plugin preferences is greyed out.
geany version 1.36.
geany.conf attached renamed geany.txt to enable upload
[geany.txt](https://github.com/geany/geany/files/6136831/geany.txt)
Please advise steps to correct position
Thanks in advance

Hi,
I have a problem with Geany 1.37.1 (on Windows 10 Pro 64 bits). I have a file that I can open but trying to save it gets me an error message:
"Error saving file. Error renaming temporary file: Permission denied
The file on disk may now be truncated!"
This occurs after years of using Geany seamlessly. Can this be related to the fact that I have tried to input Unicode characters like "É" just before (unsuccessfully, by the way...), which I think I had never done before? The "Alt-144" method I use in other Windows applications did not work, so I tried the Ctrl-Shift-u method described in the Geany Help, to no success. The file name does not contain any accented character (not even those that are directly on my French keyboard like é,à... that have never caused me any trouble in Geany).
At each attempt of file saving, I get a new file named .goutputstream-XXXXXX instead, with the content of the file I am trying to save.
Saving "file.txt" is not possible but saving as a new version like "file_v2.txt" works. However, after opening again "file_v2.txt", trying to save it fails again (only works if I save it as "file_v3.txt" and so on).
Creating, saving, reopening... new files works as expected. Opening, editing and saving the file in another editor works, but reopening it with Geany leads to the same problem.
Yours,
Maxime

Hi, Im using geany 1.37.1 on Windows 10 Pro 64-bit. I did some searches for this issue and haven't found anything related. I have noticed that geany doesn't detect certain function symbols depending on what kind of macro is before it.
For Example:
detected - WINAPI AllocConsole(void);
not detected- WINAPI_(ULONG) GetCurrentProcessId(void);
i have included the screenshot of where GetCurrentProcessId() should be but isn't.
Thanks.

1.37.1 in Windows 10, (using Chinese Simplified Microsoft Pinyin IME).
**Reproduce:**
0. (Be in Chinese character pinyin input mode)
1. Type "p" (see the floating input dialogue)
2. Press "ctrl+space" to escape the pinyin input mode for English. (ctrl+space is set as my IME switch, some people use ctrl+shift or other key combos, I haven't tried changing all these shortcuts to test the behavior across all conditions.)
**Expected**: the letter "p" is typed as the buffer is cleared
**Result**: the print dialogue is opened ("ctrl+p")
**Background --**
When using an IME with Geany, often a floating input selection box pops up on the screen where it offers character options, none of which are inserted into the document as you type. The IME also lets you switch between, say, Chinese, and Latin input with a shortcut, something like ctrl+space.
(Geany's behavior is slightly different than most IME input boxes I see. Others insert characters as you type, while also giving you a floating set of options to overwrite what you typed. I would guess Geany's is probably inherited from somewhere, but not sure why it doesn't rely on the generic Windows interface for this process, which seems to work fine and consistently in random input boxes across other applications.)
E.g., from within this browser input box, the options float just below the cursor, while still inserting keystrokes as you type:
* * * * * * *
> 
* * * * * * *
E.g., Geany, the input box moves the input to the upper left:
* * * * * * *
> 
* * * * * * *
I discovered this when halfway through the word "request"... the "q" triggered a surprising "crash." But it looks like all keystrokes behave this way. If you are in the input method window, it holds all the keystrokes in a buffer. If you hit ctrl+space, you'd expect them to all simply be typed as Latin letters at the cursor, but instead they are all sequentially pressed as a "ctrl+" combination.
**Workarounds**:
If you hit "ESC" to escape that IME box, then no characters are not inserted and the input box closes. If you hit space or punctuation, then it enters the recommended option, usually Chinese characters in my case. If you hit the "Enter" key, it enters the Latin letters you typed and ignores the suggestions in the window. These three other ways of escaping an IME box may make for reasonable workarounds. The only thing is, muscle memory is stubborn, it would be preferable if the IME didn't have a path to invoke a bunch of ctrl+commands seemingly at random from any of its states, even though that state could technically be avoided with careful typing.
Not sure what the worst random string of commands would be. "axq" is probably up there.
**Other possibly related issues?:**
I didn't find any clear examples. Closest thing I found was #795, where he talks about some crashes while inputting text, and some Japanese language files. But my issue seems to be on inputting characters, that one reads like it happens more intermittently and in other conditions, so I don't think they're actually the same issue.
Good luck with this one, and thanks for your work on Geany.

Hi, I encounter problems with printing underscores on my screen (a 32" with 2560x1440 pixels). At normal zoom factor, they do not appear, I need to zoom in 3 times to see them at last (see the 2 pics joined). I'm using Geany on Ubuntu 20.04 (fully up to date). My version of Geany is 1.36, and it is indicated "construit le Mar 22 2020 ou ultérieurement" and "Utilisant les bibliothèques GTK v3.24.20 et GLib v2.64.6". Maybe the bug is not present any more in the latest version, but I'm not sure I will be able to install and try it... Thanks for reading.
