Hi All,
Does auto completion work for anyone running version 1.30? It used to work in my old install of 1.28...
When I type function names that are open in other documents, they don't auto complete. My settings look correct for auto complete. Does anyone else have this problem? I don't think anything is auto completing for me, but in case it matters, Javascript and PHP are not auto completing for me. I think nothing does.
I'm running Geany 1.30 on Windows 7 x64 SP1.
Thanks OwN

Works for me with C, C++ and Python, same version but on Ubuntu 16.04.
You could check your preferences, maybe auto-completion got turned off somehow (Preferences->Editor->Autocomplete Symbols).

Works for me for js, c, C++, python, basically everything.
Do you get symbols in the symbols pane?

Perhaps share them so they can be checked.

Ok, I found that auto completion works, but it's showing up on the wrong monitor which I had off. I have a dual monitor setup that I use in Windows. Looks like this:

Auto complete is showing up on the left monitor which is super annoying. Can I control the position of this?
Ahh, I had a similar issue. There was a bug in Scintilla (the editing component we use) where they got monitors and desktops confused and the result was autocomplete, calltips and other things came up in the wrong place on multi-monitor setups.
The Geany maintainer made a fix to Scintilla which works for me, and its been accepted by Scintilla, so it will be in the next release due in July. In the meantime, unless you can compile your own Geany with the patch I am afraid there is no fix I am aware of except keeping Geany on the primary monitor.
Cheers Lex

Geany is running on my primary monitor though. The monitor on the right is the primary in my case (as shown in the screenshot I sent earlier).
Strange. I'll have to figure something out. Thanks for the information and help though!

Oh, wrong use of the term "primary", what I meant was the monitor at the origin of the desktop coordinates, the top left one. At least for me the autocompletes worked correctly on my left monitor and started to go wrong as soon as the cursor within Geany moved to the right hand monitor.
Of course as this is a bug I can't guarantee anything, it might purely have been down to the specific sizes and geometrys of my two monitors.

No you're right, the bug is that it'll compute the position in monitor coordinates, but apply them as if they were screen coordinates. That means that it'll always be closest to the origin, that is the top left corner of the whole screen (which includes all monitors in a conventional setup).
If it's trouble enough, we perhaps could release a 1.30.1 for this -- and any other thing troublesome enough.
Regards, Colomban
Geany 1.30.1 has been released with this fixed.
