waffuruto created an issue (geany/geany#4253)
I use a M1 Macbook and Geany 2.0.
When I opened Geany today, every space button or special character (;, *, etc.) I type will delete the previous words. For example, when I type "#include" and then use a space, it will replace it with "# ".
It also highlights everything with this font before proceeding to delete it <img width="182" alt="Image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/34c0de4e-3c3d-4a4a-bc61-f30c029cd9ee" />
Could somebody help me with this? It may also be that I accidentally configured something I didn't know about in Geany, I really don't have much of a clue

By the looks of it you're triggering some advanced input method which likely requires specific usage. I wouldn't know about the details orr how it got triggered -- but potentially a system keybinding.

@waffuruto Have you by any chance modified the `im_module` value inside `~/.config/geany/geany_mac.conf`? By default the value should be `quartz`. You can also delete this file and it will be re-created once you start Geany.

I have checked the file and it says `quartz`

I have also tried deleting the file and when it returns it is still by default like the image

These are related files to configuration I found in the same folder

So it will probably be something else.
What keyboard layout do you use in macOS? Is the problem present when you use the English layout?
