Sometimes I have found in Geany that after opening a file I can't scroll down. After a few milliseconds I realise that the content pane doesn't have focus so I click on it with the mouse cursor and can then navigate via the keyboard. After this happening once or twice I have realised that the most common occurrence is that the toolbar is focused, so using the up and down arrow keys is navigating through the buttons on the toolbar.
Is this how Geany is supposed to behave? If not, has anyone else seen this behaviour?
