convention for shortcut for foreword search (synctex command)

[tush via lyx-users]

Is there a "convention" among you tex users to trigger the SyncTeX command for 
navigating the current view from the LyX cursor to its corresponding position 
in the pdf reader?

I have seen "cmd+option+j" in the context of VScode users, but I wonder if 
other users use this shortcut too.--

LyX 2.3.4 and Evince/Okular synctex

[Ben Houcine]

After a week of Linux distros tests I settled yesterday with 
manjaro-gnome-19.0.2. This distro worked fine with the latest version of 
LyX.Concerning LyX synctex with Okular I have the following note to add to the 
pageLyX wiki | LyX / SyncTeX
The following are necessary:
1) In Document > Settings > Formats, check Synchronize with output (In windows 
10 it's not necessary to do that because I think there is a difference between 
TeXLive versions in Windows and Linux and how they work)
2) Tools → Preferences → File Handling → File Formats
Select the format PDF (pdflatex)Set the Viewer field to Custom with a command: 
okular --unique
as seen this screenshot
https://imgur.com/Wf3aw9U



I note also that so far I have tested the command "okular --unique" don't work 
properly in Windows ports of okular.

- Synctex with Evince:It works great in my manjaro-gnome-19.0.2 tests, the only 
issue is that using the scripts 
http://www.spitzmueller.org/tools/lyx/evince_sync_lyx.zip
evince don't start maximized even if you save window settings in it.My solution 
is to edit the preceding scripts and replace "evince" by the command "evince 
--fullscreen"

- LyX version 2.3.4.4 (testing version):So far in my tests, I din't see any 
issue in Windows 10.

Hi Diego,

Sorry you did not receive a response for this. Did you get it working?
According to our documentation, Evince does not have full synctex
support. Doing a search makes me wonder if it was added recently though:

Best,

Scott

Re: anyone use synctex?

I tried configuring converters
lyx (LuaTeX) -> pdf (LuaTeX) convert to
lualatex --synctex=1

But didn't seem to work for export->pdf(luatex).

I suspect maybe the synctex.gz file was written to a cache directory, and
not exported to the correct (source) directory?

How would I fix this?





Dear Neal

I do use synctex and do not have trouble with it. I do not remember
having to manually configure converters as you did. First things first,
did you try to follow the instructions given at
<https://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/SyncTeX> ?

Dear LyXers,
I just updated my LyX version to 2.0.7 running in Ubuntu 12.04.
I found the site for setting up SyncTeX in order to go back and forth
between the PDF document and the LyX source.
The site explains how to set it up for a few programs:  Skim, Okular, and
Sumantra.  However, I am using the default viewer by Evince, and I haven't
been able to set it up.

I was wondering if there is anyone out there who will help me.

synctex and LyX?

Hi

I just saw that synctex is working under linux with okular: just add the
option -synctex=1 to the converter to PDF (pdflatex) and if you
shift-click on any location in the resulting pdf in okular, it opens the
specified LaTeX editor (configured in okular) at the location you
clicked on - really cool.
And guess what, there is even lyx as an editor. That is really great -
and it works nicely.

Thanks a lot

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.

Matts Lindström

2009/5/7 Matts Lindström cody.cust...@gmail.com:
 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,

 I'm on Linux, unfortunately. Judging from the Mac instructions on the wiki,

Thanks for your reply Pavel,

I've actually managed to get this working now. But I'm still not sure
if there really was a bug or just me doing something wrong. I'll have
a look at the dev-list archives.

 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?

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.

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

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
