the actual workstation do? After all a VM may not have tweaks you
added to your normal environment and certainly does not have same GUI
drivers.The thing is, if I copy away the filetypes.python I use, or copy one from /usr/share/geanyto .config/geany/filedefs and restart Geany, it behaves as expected, what I labled 'Editor'-Style.So even considering the differences between a VM and the actual workstation, I can change the behavioreven on the workstation alone. And the trigger seems to be using a different filetypes.python. So let me rephrase:When changing the filetypes.python I use, the behavior changes. I always quit Geany before I make changeslike that and start it only after it's finished. the identifiers attribute was not set as well as the lexer_properties sectionwas not defined. I took those from the /usr/share/geany file and added them. I also changed certain colors, to havea more dark blue background. But again, the behavior is 'usual' style.This works for me, did you force the preference to apply to already

open documents? Just setting the preference won't change the setting
for already open documents unless you force it (see note at top of
preference page)Do you refer to
and the statement about changes under the 'Document' Tab?Anyway, I restarted Geany after changing settings. They showed up as I set there.Preferences Dialog -> Editor TAB Indentation: Type SpacesBut don't seem to apply. Just to be sure, we are talking about the same:A sample, I have 'Show whitespaces' active at all times:. . . . if xmldoc.getElementsByTagName('ns3:message') == 'broken symlink': <hitting enter results in>----->---->print "The symlink is broken"However, I've just had a look at the options under the Documents Tab and found thatIndent Typewas set to Tabs and space although my Settings in the Preferences Dialog show it as spaces.Changing it there, solves this. It also keeps this set after restarting Geany. Though this is the opposite ofwhat it say's in the Geany manual:"The settings under the Document menu, however, are only for the current document and revert to defaults when restarting Geany."
So I'm not sure whether this is a bug or just a 'glitch', but changing the filetypes.python changed this behavior as well.> 3. IssueAgain don't see how this is to do with the theme, more likely system

configuration being different to the VM.Also again, any suggestions on which system config element could possibly influence thebehavior of the editor? I purged and reinstalled Geany, put the filetypes.* back in placeand started the Editor, same picture. Though I have to admit, that the purging seems notto have been as thorough as I wished. After starting the editor, the last opened files reappeared.See comment above, behaves as you describe even with pref changed

unless the change is applied to the open file.I'll gibe the version 0.20 a try. Lets see what this brings.Thanks again.PhilCheers
