• [x] The FAQ cannot address the issue.
• [x] The issue is not related to compiling a document, or the document can be successfully compiled in the OS terminal but not in Visual Studio Code with this extension.

Environment*

• Operating System: Ubuntu 22.04
• Visual Studio Code Version: 1.88.1
• LaTeX Workshop Version: 9.20.0

The Issue*

When source files are in different directories, I get the error message "Cannot view file PDF file. File not found"

Reproduction Steps

1. Reproduce the following file tree with

   \documentclass{article}
   \usepackage{lipsum}
   \begin{document}
   \lipsum
   \end{document}

   in TeX files

2. Compile with the extension doc1, then doc2
3. Back in doc1, click on the icon "View LaTeX PDF file" (or Ctrl+Alt+V)

At this point, the file cannot be found as if it was looking at doc1.pdf inside the file2 directory.

Expected Behavior

It should display in a vscode tab or in the browser the pdf of doc1.
