One thing about IDE's is how much screen real estate gets taken up by various windows and toolbars. Often, when editing a single file, I wish I had more room on the screen for the text (specifically, more vertical lines displayed at once).
I see that in Geany, under the View menu, I can toggle the following:
- message window
- toolbar
and in Edit --> Prefs --> Interface tab:
- Misc section, I can toggle the statusbar on and off.
- Tab placement, I can shut off editor tabs.
Now, what would be darn cool is if there were a menu item under View (critical: and a key combo to go with it) to allow me to toggle all four of those off in one fell swoop. I need the message window, toolbar, statusbar, and editor tabs -- just not all the time.
I added a keybinding(no menu item, at least not now) to hide most of the additional widgets. We don't hide the notebook tabs because then you loose control(mostly) over open files and can only switch with keyboard shortcuts between the files.
Default shortcut is unset.
Added in SVN r1505.

Neat. Thanks. :) I stuck in on the F12 key. Interesting choice of hiding the sidebar instead of the tabs. Just curious: why hide the sidebar at all? Do you often need the extra text window *width*?
Say, I went to make some updates to the docs (mostly regarding this), but noticed that there seemed to be some issues after running `make doc` in the geany/doc directory
=== snip === $ make doc if [ geany.docbook -nt "./html/index.html" ]; then \ /bin/sh ../mkinstalldirs html; \ xmlto -m geany.xsl -o html/ xhtml ./geany.docbook; \ test -f html/geany.css || cp ./geany.css html/; \ fi xmlto: input does not validate (status 1) /home/john/opt/src/geany/doc/./geany.docbook:1354: parser error : Opening and ending tag mismatch: para line 1127 and section </section> ^ /home/john/opt/src/geany/doc/./geany.docbook:2006: parser error : Opening and ending tag mismatch: section line 1108 and chapter </chapter> ^ /home/john/opt/src/geany/doc/./geany.docbook:2699: parser error : Opening and ending tag mismatch: chapter line 186 and book </book> ^ /home/john/opt/src/geany/doc/./geany.docbook:2700: parser error : Premature end of data in tag book line 13

I didn't touch those lines, so I'm not sure why those errors are showing up now, but please find attached my small patch/addition.
