Re: Re: lyx pipe and skim
However, it WORKS for me (with or without the full path to lyxeditor,
or with the LyX preference in Skim) when Shift-Option-Command-click in
Skim (instead of Option-Click).
Actually, only Shift-Command-Click (without Option) is needed.
It is documented on the Skim Wiki, but the Help is wrong. I reported it
to Skim.

Thanks, that works! I thought I had tried out all the two-modifier
combinations...
Incidentally, it is also possible to use the option
pdflatex -synctex=1 $$i
for the latex to pdf converter in LyX.
For this, you need a recent TeX distribution, e.g. TeXlive 2008.
This removes the need of \usepackage{pdfsync} in the preamble and lets
you keep a pure LaTeX source. Skim supports inverse searching with
synctex, I tested it.

lyx pipe and skim
Hi,
I was trying to use Skim and LyX 1.5.7 for inverse PDF searching. It did
not work for me. MacOSX 10.5.5.
I did the following:
-
install mactex 2008
put \usepackage{pdfsync} in the preamble
set the pdf (pdflatex) viewer to open -a Skim.app
restart lyx
on viewing the PDF file, Skim gets called, fine.
I set lyx as the editor for inverse search in Skim.
Now, option-click or option-shift click is supposed to jump to the line
in the lyx editor, but it doesn't.
-
I tried explicitly deleting .lyxpipe.in and .lyxpipe.out, which are in
the default location ~/Library/Application Support/Lyx-1.5/ and then
restarting lyx.
I also tried to run lyx -dbg any: no message at all when clicking the
PDF file in Skim.
Any ideas what goes wrong? is this lyx or skim?
cheers, Nils
