Re: Is SyncTex (going to be) supported in LyX?

[Matts Lindström]

Hello again, I've looked some more into this. I still can't get DVI
reverse search configured under linux. These are the results:

The following works with LyX 1.6.1 on my Mac OS X machine:

echo LYXCMD:clientid:server-goto-file-row:filenameandpath.lyx 43  .lyxpipe.in

(moves the cursor, just like it should to row 43 in the open lyx-document)

Under Linux (LyX 1.6.1) it won't. Instead of moving to the correct
line the cursor keeps jumping to the first line. Is this as bug in the
Linux version or am I doing something wrong? I've tried piping other
commands than server-goto-file-row and these seem to work without
problems.

 Hello, this is related: how do I get source specials and reverse

 In the LyxWiki there are instructions for how to accomplish this under

 I'm on Linux, unfortunately. Judging from the Mac instructions on the wiki,
 though, it seems that all it's needed is a SyncTeX-aware pdf viewer. Are 
 there
 any available on Linux? If so, I can't seem to find them.

there has been discussion exactly about this on devel list and some work should
appear in the forthcomming 1.6.3. if you are able to compile lyx for yourself
try to buid the current 1.6 branch and report problems back (directly to

Is SyncTex (going to be) supported in LyX?

[Stefano Franchi]

Dear all,

I read that the  release of SyncTeX in the latest version of pdflatex (i.e. in 
TeXLive 2008) makes possible back and forth navigation between pdf output and 
Latex sources in a fairly painless and rather accurate way. Is anything like 
that possible between pdf and LyX? Or is it perhaps a planned feature?

I seem to remember a developer saying that pdf--lyx navigation shuold work 
out ot the box thanks to Lyx's server technology, whereas lyx--pdf needs some 
coding efforts. But I could not find any detail on how to make the former (and, 
to me, most important) navigation work.

 I'm on Linux, unfortunately. Judging from the Mac instructions on the wiki,
 though, it seems that all it's needed is a SyncTeX-aware pdf viewer. Are there
 any available on Linux? If so, I can't seem to find them.

Is SyncTex (going to be) supported in LyX?

[Stefano Franchi]

Dear all,

I read that the  release of SyncTeX in the latest version of pdflatex (i.e. in 
TeXLive 2008) makes possible back and forth navigation between pdf output and 
Latex sources in a fairly painless and rather accurate way. Is anything like 
that possible between pdf and LyX? Or is it perhaps a planned feature?

I seem to remember a developer saying that pdf-->lyx navigation shuold work 
out ot the box thanks to Lyx's server technology, whereas lyx-->pdf needs some 
coding efforts. But I could not find any detail on how to make the former (and, 
to me, most important) navigation work.


Cheers,

S.

Hello, this is related: how do I get source specials and reverse
search working with lyx and dvi-viewers under linux (xdvi or kdvi)?
(So that when I click on a word in the dvi-viewer I get there in the
LyX-buffer)

In the LyxWiki there are instructions for how to accomplish this under
Mac OS X, but these do not seem to apply to Linux (I'm on Ubuntu
running lyx 1.6.1).

Thanks in advance,
Matts Lindström
