Hello Geany Community,
Today I upgraded to geany 1.34.1_1. I am using Void Linux. For the past several months, maybe going back to late 2018, I have not been able to resize the divider between the sidebar panel and the main editor panel. Nor can I raise the divider that I think is still at the bottom of the Geany window to expose the command-line console. I used to be able to do those things. I don't get the pointer icon change when I move the mouse over where a divider would be.
I figured the problem was the growing pains of switching to a different library, but not now. I see nothing online about anyone else having this issue. I see the configuration file ~/.config/geany/geany.conf, but I see nothing to change. Here are two lines for what it's worth:
tab_pos_sidebar=2sidebar_pos=0
I also noticed today that there are unlabelled buttons on either side of the file tabs to change the active tab to the left or right, which is nice. It would be nice to be able to move the panel dividers again, but obviously it's working pretty well without. Geany is a very good editor. It was great for my Python programming, which ended before this issue began. Maybe the Void Linux package is screwy, a technical term I know. I am not knowledgeable about compiling software, which could explain why I don't use FreeBSD. I am ignorant about compilation configuration settings, which I suppose has to do with architectural ignorance and whatnot.
Right now I'd just like any relevant information I can get to better understand what the problem might (and might not) be and better understand what I might try to correct it. I want to know if anyone else on Linux is having this problem with the dividers, or is not, and with the display of the presumed arrow icons on the tab left and tab right buttons, or not.
Thanks.

Geany doesn't come with a FORTRAN compiler, you need to install one
yourself, for example GNU gfortran. Then, you either need to setup the
Windows environment so that it finds `gfortran.exe` in the console (see
setting PATH environment variable), or you need to change the Geany
settings for FORTRAN files to include the full path to the compiler
(with a FORTRAN file open, go to Build -> Set Build Commands).

It's odd that it would select the wrong language, but I guess some part
of your system still say it's Chinese. Anyway, you can e.g. check the
FAQ question 11: https://www.geany.org/Documentation/FAQ#QQuestions11

PS: you should write to the mailing lists, as there's a wider audience
that can help you, and any answer can also help others. I CC'd it.
It took me a while to figure out how to get folding on indents for text
files - cool!
Also found out that you can select address > Right Click > Context Action
to open web addresses directly in Geany files, plus
Click on pathname > Right Click > Open file option to open other files with
their associated application.
Attached below are my detailed notes and the copies of config files that
worked for me.

Hi,
Geany lets one open a file with the cursor prepositioned.
However, it can be hard to find the cursor, which is why
compiler errors get highlighted.
Is there any command line (or other?) option to open a file with
a specified line or region highlighted?
Hi translators,
As Geany is getting a new major release, the Geany-Plugins are getting
too -- 1.35 will be released soon.
In preparation I have updated the po-files for Geany-Plugins at github
and asking you whether you could update translations, review them or
maybe add new languages.
As on Geany core, I'd be very happy if you could send a patch, a pull
request or single file with translation to either the geany-i18n mailing
list or direct to me within the next two weeks so we can include it to
the next release. Deadline will be also 2019-04-27 24:00h CEST.
To get most recent files you could just clone the repositories from
Geany: https://github.com/geany/geany-plugins
This can be done e.g. with
git clone https://github.com/geany/geany-plugins.git
Also at http://i18n.geany.org/plugins are statistics and daily updated
files available.
If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ping me directly via
IRC: geany @freenode (frlan)
Jabber/XMPP: frlan(a)jabber.ccc.de
or via Mail: look above or some of the mailing lists.
Happy translating!
Cheers,
Frank
