Geany hangs on "The file 'xxxxx' in the disk is more recent than the current buffer" popup on dual display [Caused by Plugin -Various debugger intergrations]
Geany hangs on popup:
After pressing 'Reload' or other, popup dissapears after minute on so (during that time Geany is not responding) and after that Geany window is stretched over both monitors. (Could this be some kind of widget resize problem?)

Not sure about the resize issue, but from your screenshot it looks like it has a bunch of code all on one line. Geany/Scintilla is notoriously slow with extremely long lines, especially when line wrapping is enabled.
Aside from trying to disable line-wrapping, there's a couple things you can possibly do if you control whatever generated that code. If you are using C++11 or later you can use raw string literals or if not use plain C-style string literal concatenation (described on same link). Both would allow to split the generated code onto multiple lines which should help with the Geany performance issue as well as to make the generated code more readable.

I believe this is some kind of other issue with UI. I tested with small file just some chars and same happened. Tested and what I tough was that it takes long time was incorrect: Real problem is that the dialog do no hide away until I lost focus from geany and come back + screen size is grown big. Please see attachments from dual display.
You could try running Geany from the command line with the -p/--no-plugins option. It's possible that whatever debugger plugin you have loaded is not designed to fit in the message window area when it's on the right like you have it. If it doesn't happen when no plugins are loaded, try and run it normally again but change the preference to put the message window back in the bottom to see if that's what's going on.
codebrainz: I will test tomorrow (too drunk at the moment... :) elextr:Fedora 32 (Workstation Edition) uname: 5.7.11-200.fc32.x86_64 geany/geany#1 SMP Wed Jul 29 17:15:52 UTC 2020 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Ok trapped, its this:
disabled it and now works ok.
Also changing layout as below works.
@cacheflood feel free to update the bug title to match the current findings.
