Details in https://github.com/Hannah-Sten/TeXiFy-IDEA/issues/1785 . I wanted to create this new issue so it is re-opened

Also I noticed in some of the comments it was thought that this issue might be caused by using PyCharm instead of IntelliJ. So maybe this is a different issue

Hi, I found this issue because I have probably the same exact problem. I'm trying to use TeXiFy on Mac with Intellij. which pdflatex = /Library/TeX/texbin/pdflatex which kpsewhich = /Library/TeX/texbin/kpsewhich kpsewhich article.sty = /usr/local/texlive/2020/texmf-dist/tex/latex/base/article.sty

The only problem here seems to be article.cls not being found.

I've also tried adding a TeXLive SDK at /usr/local/texlive/2020. I then added the folder containing this TeX file as a TeX module. This did not fix the issue.

And adding a Native TeX Live SDK at /Library/TeX/texbin, does that fix it? You have to update to an alpha version for this to work at the moment, sorry about that. See the wiki for how to install an alpha version: https://github.com/Hannah-Sten/TeXiFy-IDEA/wiki/Alpha-builds 0.7.5 will be released in two weeks.

What SDKs do you have being suggested automatically (using the alpha release)?

[mgroth0]

I installed the latest alpha (0.7.4) like you suggested and it without any additional steps it works! (just slowly?)

The article.cls reference resolves. In addition, I can even jump to it like in any other code.

The only thing I need to note is high cpu usage as well as a very long load time (~2 min) for the cls file. However, its likely this is a personal issue with my machine since I've had CPU issues before (https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-45570). Closing.
