Synctex reverse does not work on Atom 1.9.7 #145

Closed mcolmant closed 8 years ago

mcolmant commented 8 years ago

Hello,

I updated recently my Atom editor and the synctex reverse does not work anymore. It works like a charm before this update.

Do you have the same problem?

Thanks,

It works for me on 1.9.7 / OS X.

A few questions:

  1. Do you have pdf_file.pdf and pdf_file.synctex.gz available and in the same folder?
  2. Have you set the syncTeXPath setting? This is definitely necessary on OS X, likely necessary on Linux, and possibly helpful on Windows.
  3. What OS and TeX distribution are you using? MiKTeX, for example, doesn't ship with a synctex binary.

Thanks for your reply.

The file is correctly generated and synctex is available in $PATH, but I did not set the path in the settings. I'm working on OSX, with texlive.

You are right, it now works by setting the parameter ;-) It worked before without setting it.

I can close the issue, thanks for your help!
