One little frustration, though: the "back" command takes my cursor back to the line I left (when jumping to a definition), but not to the column I left. Instead, it always seems to move the cursor to the first column. Can I fix that with a config setting? If not, might I submit it as a feature request or bug report?
No need to submit a feature request. IIRC there is already one in the tracker and the code also has a comment to make it position-based instead of line-based. It just has to be written, will be done soon.
Thanks. I didn't find any such bug in the tracker, so I entered one. It covers the cursor's position and the window's scroll position, the two missing parts of a true "back" command.
[ 1936927 ] "navigate back" doesn't fully restore previous position
It should be fixed in SVN r2468. Please test the code. Geany now stores navigation points position based, this makes it possible to restore also the column of the cursor when returning to a previous point.
