Click-to-View was such a valuable feature. I could click on notes, chord symbols or lyrics, and the URI link would open the correct .ly file and highlight the exact text-code. (My oldest files date from 2009. I've been enjoying this feature a long time, and really miss it.)
This was with Mac OS 10.8.6 (Mountain Lion). I upgraded last month to OS 11 (El Capitan) I would be interested to know how other users make corrections to the scores they have typeset. I am not enjoying the need to read through all the text to fix wrong notes and typos. (I have many!) Switching to Skim or another PDF viewer is a logical suggestion. I would appreciate hearing from any users who who can verify whether the URIs properly. I suspect Apple is now suppressing any links and scripts embedded in PDFs for security reasons. -------------------------------------------- On Sat, 7/7/18, Mats Behre <mats.be...@telia.com> wrote: Subject: Re: Interactive PDF Link to Notes in Preview To: "Zone Dremik" <dremik_z...@yahoo.com>, lilypond-user@gnu.org Date: Saturday, July 7, 2018, 4:26 AM On 2018-07-03 18:47, Zone Dremik wrote: > Hello, > After a recent upgrade to my computer, the function that links music notes (and lyrics) in the PDF viewer, to the text in the Lilypond files, has stopped working. > > The ability to click on notes and lyrics in the preview screen, and have the exact point highlighted in the corresponding Lilypond file was so enormously useful, that the loss of this function has become a great barrier to efficient use of the program. > > I am using Lilypond Version 2.18.2-1 > Apple Macintosh System 10.11.6 > Apple Preview Version 8.1 (877.7) I don't think I have ever managed to get this to work with Preview, and my first attempt was way before Sierra, so I'm not sure it has ever worked. (10.11 is El Capitan, by the way ...) I have used Acrobat Reader instead, but Preview updates the page when you rebuild, with Acrobat doesn't, so it's not ideal. Others have mentioned Skim, perhaps that's something to take a look at. /mb _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
