I'm on Lubuntu 15.10 with Geany 1.25
It never happens on start and I can't reproduce it but it happens since a long time regularly when I bring Geany back to foreground. It lost all it's menu, instead of toolbar and buttons there is just a grey area. Moving the window does not bring it back, only resizing the window does fixes it. Reinstalling did not help and I do not have such problem with any other application, but since I cannot find anyone describing such behavior it still may be my setup. Any advice appreciated.

The conventional wisdom is to suggest trying the current version of Geany, though I doubt it will make any difference. The problem is like the desktop is not telling GTK its visible so it should re-draw.
I don't know Lubuntu at all, but if it has a setting for desktop acceleration, try turning it off. I have seen very slow screen redraws on Cinnamon with acceleration on, though that only affected the edit window and needed full screen as well.

Thank you @elextr, I couldn't find a way to activate desktop acceleration so far. Gonna close this.
