That's interesting. It looks like it happens only sometimes.

No, it happens not only sometimes, but always if I do the steps of the report. The issue was fixed in the past (it is called "issue 3"): https://github.com/xiota/geany-preview/issues/5#issuecomment-956119413: "The issue 3 of this webpage is fixed."
I'll take a look at it later. The major issue (HTML not displaying) is fixed for now.
The issue appears only when in the sidebar there is the Symbols-tab. If the Symbols-tab is missing, then the issue does not appear. So, the issue does not appear neither with Documents-tab, nor with Filemanager-tab (a plugin), nor with both tabs (Documents-tab and Filemanager-tab).
For me it seems to be a bug. Could you please add the bug-label to this issue? That would give a better structure in the list of issues. Thank you in advance.
Today I did exactly the steps of the report. The issue does not occur any more, but this time the issue was fixed without any intervention.
Today I did exactly the steps of the report. The issue still exists. It is strange that in my last comment I couldn't reproduce the issue. Maybe it is because sometimes the issue exists and sometimes the issue does not appear. I will try to report it at GTK.
Do you have multple computers? What are their basic specs? Distro? Desktop environment? Etc.
What I use now: Lubuntu 23.04 with LXQt 1.2.0 with Geany 1.38; i3 11th generation. I will try to reproduce the environment of last year on the old computer that I used to that time to test it again.
Do you see the bug on your computer?
I don't know. I don't always understand the bugs you report because the steps to replicate them are complicated and don't match how I use the sidebar. I only use it to preview the formatting of what I'm typing, but it seems like you use it for actual browsing. You also do a lot more keyboard navigation than I do.
You probably need is a way to put your normal browser into the sidebar. You might like using a tiling window manager. Then you could put Geany on one side and the browser on the other. Then find a way to send Geany contents over to the browser. You wouldn't get live updates, but it would work better for browsing.
Yesterday I could reproduce the issue by clicking in the sidebar on the tab-title Documents
and then by tab-browsing to the left side in the sidebar (sidebar was on the left side, while in the editor there were many documents and where the first document was not active).
But I can't reproduce the issue today what is pity because I wanted to test it on an other computer in Geany without the plugin Preview to see if Geany or the plugin Preview is the problem.
But at least I can reproduce the issue with the shortcut Toggle focus between editor and preview
.

is not the problem)Preview

Can you confirm the issue?
If you do the test of my last comment with only one tab in the editor, then tab-browsing with the keyboard is not more possible when Symbols
is in focus, so three times tab-browsing to the left is not possible (see my last comment point 7).
As already reported https://github.com/xiota/geany-preview/issues/11#issuecomment-1039649263, the issue has something to do with the Symbols
-tab.
This is the evidence that the shortcut Toggle focus between editor and preview
is not the problem:

Bingo!
To my last comment: The issue appears also on the other computer with Lubuntu 23.10 with Geany 1.38, but without the plugin Preview. So, the plugin Preview is not the problem.
I will open a new issue at geany-plugins. I will mention the issue number of geany-plugins in my next comment.

Are you referring to inability to disable /unload Lua Script plugin? If so, I think that may be a Geany 1.38 issue that is already fixed upstream. Have to wait for Geany 2.0 when Ubuntu 24.04 is released.
I have no idea. I don't understand the bug. Keyboard navigation is weird/difficult.
I opened already a new issue at geany-plugins with the issue number 1318. It seems to be that the issue is fixed in Geany 2.0. I will test again the issue next month in Lubuntu 24.04 with Geany 2.0.
In my last comment I wrote:

In Geany 2.0 in Lubuntu 23.10 the issue does not exist any more. I just closed at geany-plugins the issue number 1318.
remark It is an old issue, that was fixed, but now it is again an issue. The issue was mentioned for the first time in issue number 5 ("when sidebar is in focus: visible effect of the tab"). But I recognized now, that the issue "tab-browsing in the sidebar does not work properly" has nothing to do with the issue number 5. And that is the reason why I just opened this issue.
open Geany with an html-document condition 1: the editor is on the left side; the sidebar is on the right side condition 2: the Symbols-tab is in the sidebar the first tab click on the Preview-tab close Geany open Geany press the shortcut toggle editor/sidebar in the sidebar: tab-browse with shortcuts to the left (Ctrl+Page-up), to the first tab of the sidebar, so to the Symbols-tab in the sidebar: continue to tab-browse with shortcuts to the left (Ctrl+Page-up) result: a tab of the editor is in focus expected result: the last tab on the right side of the sidebar should be in focus
