D'oh, you're right. It seems I didn't pay attention when making the remark above. For the reply at hand I used a bit more time, so hopefully I'm not making an idiot out of myself again.

Do I understand correctly that you are suggesting to let preview-latex generate .aux files and use the data in those files for the display of resolved labels? I just tried that by removing the \nofiles switch from `preview-LaTeX-command' and the .aux files did not contain any label information. So there seem to more changes required to obtain this output. Anyway, I'm not sure if we really want to use the inconsistent numbering produced by `preview-region' runs. In addition the _region_.aux file is overwritten with every new run which complicates matters if I am not mistaken. Perhaps for a first version of the feature it is sufficient to add a warning to the manual that the resolved labels as displayed by RefTeX will only correspond to those of the last regular LaTeX run. -- Ralf _______________________________________________ auctex-devel mailing list auctex-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/auctex-devel
