Geany for novel writers
by Peter Popov 08 Jun '17

08 Jun '17

Hi All, Geany seems to be the almost perfect text editor even for a non coder. It is fast and well organized. Markdown + GeanyPrj + Numbered Bookmarks and everything runs smooth. Is there a way to center text on screen? It will still be left aligned, but the column of text would be something like 60% and centered on screen or in the window. Something like this: http://www.hogbaysoftware.com/static/writeroom/mac_os_screen.jpg Also, is there a way to make the full screen a true full screen and make everything disappear, including the menu bar? Cheers, Peter

TCL and quote
by Eric Crastes 24 May '17

24 May '17

Good morning I'm using Geany since quite sometime, both on Windows and on Linux I appreciate it because it's fast and I can use it remotely (export the display from a Linux box through SSH) However, this morning, I face a strange and annoying problem and I don't know how to solve it. I'm coding in TCL In my code, I used the following line : set n $showArray($i,"neighbor") it looks like the first double-quote (") isn't seen by geany ! And then after this line all the rest of my code seems to be part of a string, which is annoying The code work in TCL ! If I put a space after the comma, then the double-quote is taken into account and the highlighting of the code is ok ... but it doesn't work anymore in TCL Please note : I have the issue on Linux and Windows 7 Under Windows, I'm using the latest version 1.30.1 I have the same issue with Notepad++ , and MyTcl (a specialised TCL editor) but it's ok with Ased3.0 or Komodo Edit Can I do something to correct this ? Thanks in advance for your help ericc

CString Class
by Charles Miller 24 May '17

24 May '17

As a long time Visual Studio C++ developer, I made heavy use of the CString class. I am now learning to use Geany on Windows as a development platform with the intent of then moving the source code to a Raspberry Pi 3 and re-compiling it there under the RPi version of Geany. So, is there a CString class available for Geany? -- Charlie Miller

Segmentation Fault

I've run into another segmentation fault again.

() How do I fix this? My project's primarily a Python project, and if I'm reading the backtrace properly, it's involving Python. I don't remember enabling any Python-specific Geany plugins, so I'm not sure why it's running Python, but even so, why is Python causing Geany to crash upon startup? I have many other Geany Python projects that open without issue. My Geany version is: geany 1.30.1 (built on 2017-03-21 with GTK 2.24.30, GLib 2.48.2)

Segfault
by Chris Spencer 11 May '17

11 May '17

Every time I try and launch a new instance of Geany, it immediately returns a segmentation fault. $ geany -i Segmentation fault (core dumped) I've tried with and without a *.geany file, and the result is the same. How do I diagnose this?

GTK Theming
by Mike Miller 11 May '17

11 May '17

Hi all, I'd like to change the main menu font size on Geany. Long story but I have two monitors with different DPIs and need the menus and notebook tabs to be smaller on the larger monitor, because they're huge. Using these instructions: http://www.geany.org/manual/current/#defining-own-widget-styles-using-gtkrc… I put this in my ~/.gtkrc-2.0 and in the same file in my current theme, but it didn't work: style "geanyStyle" { font_name="Sans 10" } widget "GeanyToolbarMenu" style "geanyStyle" style "geanyStyle2" { font_name="Sans 10" } widget "GeanyMenubar" style "geanyStyle2" Not sure why it doesn't work. :/

How to set external diff viewer in GeanyVC?
by Chris Spencer 09 May '17

09 May '17

I have the GeanyVC plugin enabled and the "use external diff viewer" option checked, and meld installed locally, but when I go to VC->directory->diff, it shows me the generic output from diff, not meld. How do I configure GeanyVC to use meld?
