<p>It almost looks like the contents of the Preferences window are opening as a document tab. I have no idea how that could happen unless a plugin or something was intentionally doing it intentionally.</p>
<p><a href="https://github.com/jrittenh" class="user-mention">@jrittenh</a> can you try to run Geany directly from the console using a clean config dir. I'm not exactly sure but somewhere in the bundle directory there should be the actual geany binary (or an equivalent runner script?), and pass it an option like <code>geany -c /tmp/just_testing</code> to have it use a clean config dir for testing. Alternatively, you could move <code>~/.config/geany</code> directory out of the way (ex. <code>mv ~/.config/geany{,.backup}</code>) and then running Geany normally.</p>
