For what it’s worth, I have only ever known Geany to behave the way you describe as aggravating. I’ve never thought twice about it as, to me, it is intuitive for the cursor to straight down to the next line at the same horizontal space position as it was in on the upper line.
I use Geany on Windows 11 and, for me at least, it has always behaved this way.

Until a few weeks ago, the default behavior when using "arrow down" to go to the next line, the cursor would jump to the beginning of the line. Now it goes to the space right underneath the cursor on the previous line. I find this so aggravating, I'm starting to look at new text editors. But I don't want to leave Geany.
I've fiddled with all sorts of settings, "word wrap", etc.
How can I recover the behavior of old? I uninstalled geany-plugins, then uninstalled and reinstalled Geany but the behavior persists.
I use Linux and am running the latest version of Arch.
Thanks in advance. _______________________________________________ Users mailing list -- users@lists.geany.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@lists.geany.org
