<p>I don't understand the purpose of this, AFAICT searching is already enabled on both sidebar tabs? Also why are you removing the space handling?</p>

<p>I've just downloaded and checked the <a href="https://download.geany.org/geany-1.37.1_setup.exe" rel="nofollow">https://download.geany.org/geany-1.37.1_setup.exe</a> under Windows 10 -<br>
using the space key to prevent stealing the focus by the editor doesn't work for me, sometimes it works, about in a one from ten tries, when I am able to click on the sidebar and press spacebar almost simultaneosly, but most times it adds unwanted spaces into an opened file in the editor.</p>
<p>My solution allows to simply click on the sidebar and begin to type info into the fast search without any issues in productivity during cross files or tags navigation. Currently I use it on both Windows 10 and Mac OS X platforms.</p>
<p>I haven't removed the space key handling, by switching off this piece of code:<br>
"/<em>if (keyval <strong>!=</strong> GDK_space)<br>
change_focus_to_editor(doc, tv.tree_openfiles);</em>/"<br>
I have expanded the space key handling to every key, preventing the focus stealing by editor.</p>
