Ok, I'll half answer myself. Found in /.config/geany/geany.conf a line:
    fullscreen=true
setting it to false solved the problem as expected.

But I have no idea how it first got set to true. Also, could not find matching setting in preferences GUI. But I noticed that geany.conf is rewritten by geany at each run, at quit time actually, even when preferences were not changed by the user.

By the way, how to change the key binding for file-quit? (missing in the list)
