It seems to happen when I switch to another workspace then return to the one with Geany in it.
I can still type but the cursor is invisible.
I can make it visible by opening the "Find" window.
If anyone knows of other ways to make it visible please comment.
Running on:
XFCE
Xubuntu 24.04

I really feel that this one could be a very useful update, if this is possible to add.
This would be for the "Documents Only" setting in the Sidebars context menu, the other two views available “Show Path” and “Show Tree” would not be able to use this.
Currently the "Sidebar - Documents" tab appears to use alphabetical order to sort the list of currently opened documents.
(Unfortunately it also uses a common Linux based sorting approach where it puts capital letters above lower case letters which I do not understand personally)
`Sorting Example:`
01 - apple.txt
Apple.txt
Zebra.txt
apple.txt
zebra.txt
If possible I am suggesting to add a setting to the context menu to allow the sort method to be changed.
Depending on how many sorting options developer decides to add, might have to be a flyout.
Sort:
-Alphabetically -----default method currently used by Geany
-Alphabetically (Not Case Sensitive)
-Date
-Based On Tab Order
The main one I am interested in personally is the "Based On Tab Order" sort method.
I would like my Sidebar - Documents to follow the same order as how they are opened from left to right in "Editor tabs bar"
It is strange to have one that sorts alphabetically and the other does not.
Would really like the "Documents" sidebar tab to mimic the Editor tabs, like it is a "Vertical Tab" sidebar.
Also looks strange when using keybindings to navigate through tabs, because the cursor bounces around between items rather then next/previous items in the list.
I have read/seen in the manual that this is mentioned, so it is known about.
Was wondering if there are any developers that would be interested in updating this, if possible.
Hopefully someone will consider this.
Thank You

Linux / Debian 12 Based
Geany 2.0
Steps To Reproduce:
-Go into `Preferences - Keybindings` section
-Move cursor highlight to an action
-Press your Right Arrow key
-You will notice that the focus gets moved from the `Action` column to the `Shortcuts` column which is strange
-Even stranger is if you then hit your Enter key while the focus is in Shortcuts column
-You will notice that it enters a field allowing you to type in letters and numbers into that field but they are not actually keybindings assigned because you cannot assign any keys with modifiers, it is just text that is showing up in that column.
Seems like this is a bug, if anyone can confirm.
Thank You

In "Preferences - Keybindings", I am referring to the "Grab key" dialog box which is the dialog where user can assign keybinding
(strange naming of this dialog, mentioned updating this here #4185)
Might be too tricky to achieve/not worth doing but, a common action/habit is being able to hit your `Enter` when dialogs are open to apply the "Confirm/OKAY" button.
The `Enter` key by itself is probably not going to be assigned to any action within Geany because it already is used for important action, however the `Enter` key is supported, which can cause issues.
Maybe can consider removing the `Enter` key by itself from being able to be assigned as a keybinding.
This dialog also currently has the focus on the "CANCEL" button, which the Enter key will not work on anyways.
If this update is made, maybe can also change the focus in the dialog to the "OKAY" button instead.
This way
`Enter` = OKAY button
`Escape` = CANCEL closes the dialog (as it already does currently)
Thank You

In "Preferences - Keybindings" assign keybinding dialog
Currently is titled
"Grab key"
maybe can change to something like
"Assign Keybinding"

See for instance what VLC does. (Or Audacity for that matter.)
Geany’s feature set is large enough (let alone accounting for
plugins) that it may warrant such an enhancement.

Developers will probably not look at these as being worth adding which I can understand, but here are some ideas that could improve the keyboard functionality in the Preferences - Keybindings section, maybe some of them would be considered to be added.
`KEYBOARD HOTKEYS IN PREFERENCES - KEYBINDINGS PANE`
`Left Arrow` on category name = collapse category
`Right Arrow` on category name = expand category
`Enter` on category name = toggle expand/collapse category
`Enter` on action name = open the dialog to set the hotkey
`Right Arrow` on action name = open the dialog to set the hotkey
Currently Right Arrow moves focus to the "Shortcuts" column and then Enter key allows user to type which is a bug that would need to be fixed first LINK

This I believe is my last Lua script request I have for the GeanyLua plugin.
This one although I do have a use for this, is more for learning purpose.
I do not think any other users will really find this one useful.
Was wondering if anyone would be willing to provide two Lua scripts that when applied, adds a specified number of blank lines to current document. Basically the equivalent of hitting the "Enter" key over and over “x” amount of times.
No dialog boxes need, would just like to be able to just change the number of lines to be added within the Lua script text file itself, if possible.
Two scripts
1.) Add 15 blank lines below line that cursor is currently in
2.) Add 25 blank lines to the bottom of the current document regardless of where cursor is.
Thank You to anyone interested.
