Uh, what version of Geany and libvte are you using?
I hoped we eliminated those kinds of bugs :(.

Check the setting "Scrollback Lines" in the preferences dialog, VTE tab.
This defines the amount of lines which can be scrolled in the terminal.

Hmm, the only solution I can think of is to change the Run command from:
"./%e"
to
clear && "./%e"

(Above example is for filetype C, the idea is to simply prepend the Run
command with 'clear &&'.)
But this is not very nice and need to be done for every filetype you
want to execute.

Enrico
