Hi guys.
I am a Chromium based browsers developer using Geany and CScope, so I open a lot of files in Geany.
I am proposing the features, which are vital for me:
- the fast search and the scrolling by keyboard in the Documents and Symbols tabs; - put the document, activated by the click on the sidebar, to the forward and back navigations.

I don't understand the purpose of this, AFAICT searching is already enabled on both sidebar tabs? Also why are you removing the space handling?

I've just downloaded and checked the https://download.geany.org/geany-1.37.1_setup.exe under Windows 10 - using the space key to prevent stealing the focus by the editor doesn't work for me, sometimes it works, about in a one from ten tries, when I am able to click on the sidebar and press spacebar almost simultaneosly, but most times it adds unwanted spaces into an opened file in the editor.
My solution allows to simply click on the sidebar and begin to type info into the fast search without any issues in productivity during cross files or tags navigation. Currently I use it on both Windows 10 and Mac OS X platforms.
I haven't removed the space key handling, by switching off this piece of code: "/*if (keyval **!=** GDK_space) change_focus_to_editor(doc, tv.tree_openfiles);*/" I have expanded the space key handling to every key, preventing the focus stealing by editor.
Closed #2755.
