@codebrainz @elextr Yes indeed filtering will do, and it's probably better than 
having the entire list sorted: if the list starts with say monospace fonts, one 
will have to scroll alot till gets to the proportional ones. 
Whether it's specifically [combobox 
](https://developer.gnome.org/gtk3/stable/GtkComboBox.html) to select one of 
the 3 options ( mono., prop., both), or just 2 
[checkbuttons](https://developer.gnome.org/gtk3/stable/GtkCheckButton.html) to 
select one or both of (mono. , prop.) -- both do the job.

It's just a little convenient feature; I can only speak for myself, and I 
seldom need to pick fonts, but when I do it's tedious to scroll such a long 
list.  It's the same "problem" in any other editor I remember, so it's not 
something to blame Geany at all. Perhaps if one editor does it, then others 
will follow too :)
But by all means, I'm not trying to distract you from more serious problems.
