The Geany "project" concept is more lightweight than that of full fat IDEs like Visual Studio or Eclipse. It is basically a way of remembering multiple different file sets that the user is working on and allowing switching between them. So closing a file removes it from the "project". The various project plugins provide additional functionality that is closer to full fat IDEs, Project Organiser for example assumes all files in the project directory are in the project and loads symbols for them even if they are closed, so inter-file declarations should be found. Probably the first thing you should try. |

Thanks for explanation. The tar-balls need to be build. Am also not able to do that. Btw: Notepad++ is able to install plugins without admin rights. |

You havn't said what OS you are using, but I take it from the mention of Notepad++ its Windows. IIUC you can set where to install Geany using the But AFAIK there is no guarantee that there are not libraries that need to go to system directories, so if the above doesn't work there is a possible option B. IF (big IF, I don't know Windows requirements at all) the plugin needs no libraries other than what Geany uses then you might be able to just copy the dll from the There is a setting in |

I am using Geany with Python files.
Today I tried the projects feature the first time. And I assume I misunderstand its intention.
Right clicking into the code on a method or function I can find it's declaration in another file when this file is open in another tap.
But when the file with the declaration is not open the declaration is not found. That file also dissapear from the side panels project tree.
I would have expected that the "project" does remember which files belong to it. And when I search for a declaration the search is done over all files from the project no matter if they are currently open or not.
Is this possible?
