File does not generated PDF unless it is selected #295

Closed gamagan closed 6 months ago

gamagan commented 6 months ago

I'm working on a document that is broken into a main file + multiple chapter files. The main file includes the chapter files.

In vscode, I open the main file for preview. I can work on the included files (the chapters), and the changes are reflected in the preview window. That is good. However, if I want to preview generated PDF document (represented by the main file) in an external PDF editor (which I do a lot), then I have to manually select the main file in vscode and save that; otherwise, the PDF for the main file does not get updated. This includes not updating when using "Save All".

Is there a workaround for updating that main file PDF (which is the file being previewed) without having to explicitly select that file tab?

Thanks

sorry but this extension doesnt generate any pdf file. you may confuse this with other extensions like tinymist or typst-lsp
