msg.exe has stop working-preview_math #1469

Closed phatsp closed 4 years ago

phatsp commented 4 years ago

Hi, I'm learning LaTeX on SublimeText3. I have LaTeX Tools and LaTeXYZ installed. The auto pdf preview of LaTeXYZ works fine under the math/ equation environment. Then I want some customization for my math (text-align in equation) which I found here . But the pdf-preview threw an error like this. Does anyone know how to solve this problem?

*I know it would be more appropriate to post this question on LaTeXYZ, but their git somehow doesn't have many people visiting. image

It seems that there is an issue with the ghostscript conversation of the pdf (step 3 below).

The process of the math preview is the following:

  1. generate a tex file based on the current math equation
  2. create a pdf for the tex file with pdflatex (or the configured program)
  3. use ghostscript to convert the pdf to a png
  4. show the png in Sublime Text

It does not seem to be a general problem, because it works for me:

Does the preview work in general and fails on this specific equation or doesn't it work at all?

Yes, It works normally for the usual math environment $ $, but fails with this specific case, when put under{flalign*} environment.

I looked into other issues and found the latest answer: setting "preview_math_hires"= false in #1430 helps . Thank you @r-stein. Closing the topic.
