What I do is have "$x$ and $y$" in my text, previewing fine. Then I edit it to say "$x,y$" and try to force preview to update the picture at the point. At this point all hell breaks loose---all or some part of the containing math expression gets a proper preview image, but the rest of the file (and I had this experience with a 20 page paper) **appears** to disappear. I thought that it was unnecessarily brutal for an unsuspecting user. :) A secondary issue is that there are those slightly annoying pictures attached to "opened" math expressions --- in this case the second one, that was attached to $y$ refuses to go away, even though it looks to me like I have have deleted character (namely the $ in front of "y") to which it seems to be attached. > Now we _do_ have the problem that an error occuring outside of the > actual region will not get correlated correctly.

Will take a look a bit later. --Boris _______________________________________________ bug-auctex mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-auctex
