Recently, Geany suddenly started showing underscores as spaces – i.e. they've become "invisible".
For example this text – is_empty
, displays the same as is empty
. But when copying to the clipboard from Geany, the underscores are as they should. They're only displayed wrong.

Same issue, Ubuntu 20.04

The solution is to either change font or to instruct Geany to make line height bigger:
Tools > Configuration Files > filetypes.common
