[`--no-new-instance`](https://github.com/geany/geany/pull/1128) can be passed from the shell, but it may not be possible to make use of the command with many file explorers for instance.
Is there a global setting to control this?
``` Geany: Unknown option --no-new-instance ```
There is no such option and it is the default to use the same instance unless `--new-instance` is passed.
Closed #2777.

I see, Gnome doesn't appear to operate so.
@07416 what does Gnome have to do with it?
Also if you provided some information about your system and the version of Geany it might be possible to help you.
