Strange right click behavior on OSX #2512

I'm experiencing some odd behavior when I right click anywhere in Geany on my Macbook. There are two things I've noticed. I use a second monitor to the right of the Macbook.

  1. When I have Geany on my right monitor and a full screen app on my left, if I right click on Geany, the left screen scrolls back to the main desktop (leaving the full screen app that was there.)

  2. If Geany is full screened, then I right click, the context menu pops up on a new separate workspace. So I have to swipe back to Geany and use the application list to close the new workspace the context menu created.

The first issue is a minor annoyance, the second kind of makes right click unusable.

This is my first time trying out Geany. I like it quite a bit despite this problem.

@codebrainz Geany 1.36 downloaded binary from the releases. Mac OS version is Catalina 10.15.4.

Just to add a little more. Eventually, after I closed some stuff here and there and reopen things (while leaving Geany in fullscreen.) The behavior in 2 turned to the behavior in 1, even while Geany was still full screen. So more odd behavior there, but it was more usable that way.

Some further information. This actually seems to be a GTK issue, not specific to Geany.

I found this issue: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gimp/-/issues/882

Also downloaded GIMP. It won't actually even utilize the Mac OS fullscreen mode. But when I right click anywhere on GIMP, it demonstrates the same behavior.

So I don't know if this needs to stay open so people with the same problem can go to the other issue. Or if you guys want to close it. Or if it would be a good idea to do a Geany specific work around. But thought I'd update with what I found.

Is this issue still present in the latest release (which uses newer GTK where this might have been fixed)? I haven't been able to reproduce it.
