If you ran the default build commands then Geany will be installed in
the default prefix (/usr/local IIRC). You need to ensure that
${geany-prefix}/bin appears in your path before the location of the
1.36 version.
Xfce menu setups are part of the distros packaging, not something
Geany from source will do.
