On ubuntu 14.04 the scrollbar has a handle that shows or hide. In geany with the sidebar open if I pull the up/down editor's handle on the left side instead of up or down, it changes the sidebar' size.... Then the scrollbar handle won't appear anymore in that specific tab.

You need to explain what you mean more.
Which scrollbar are you talking about? The scrollbars are on the right of the window they apply to (in normal use). The scrollbars for the edit window are always present, they do not disappear even with a totally empty file.
The scrollbar for the sidebar appears and disappears depending on the content of the window, if everything fits the window, no scrollbar is shown since it is not needed. It would not do anything if it was shown. This is normal behaviour of the GTK scrollbar widgets.
There is a handle on the left of the edit window which changes the relative widths of the sidebar and edit window panes. Are you trying to use this as a scrollbar?

Hi, I really don't know the names of every part of the interface so I made a video to show what happens. https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BxqMIR6Egul9MjBCVUtzWFFPdms/view?usp=sharin... At first we see the handle on the right appearing correctly. Then I click on it and pull it left, the sidebar comes to the pointer in resize mode which is surprising. Then, the handle on the right do not appear anymore. I hope this is more clear now. Thank you for such a quick response.

Ok, clear now.
Doesn't happen here, what version of Geany, GTK, Glib, what desktop are you using?
(the first three are at the top of menu->help->debug messages)

Ok, I don't think any Geany contributors use Unity, so it isn't tested, and we know Ubuntu makes changes to the GTK graphics libraries. The Mint I use is based on Ubuntu 14.04 and has the same versions of GTK and Glib but uses the cinnamon desktop and does not exhibit the problem (with current Geany 1.27).
Also 1.23.1 is a pretty old version of Geany, but I realise its the one provided by the Ubuntu long term support version. Unless someone who uses unity can investigate and confirm, maybe you can try a newer version (1.27) of Geany from the [PPA](https://launchpad.net/~geany-dev/+archive/ubuntu/ppa).
If not maybe you best bet is to wait until the next long-term Ubuntu release later this month and try it and the version of Geany it supplies.

Thank you for your explanations and advises. And thank you for your contribution to geany which is my favourite editor. I'll try the next long-term release and see what happens.

Ubuntu uses it's own GTK+ module/plugin for those Mac-style overlay scrollbars, see [this answer](http://askubuntu.com/a/177160) for how disable them (untested, I don't use Unity).
