[Tex/LaTex] Why does Texmaker and synctex pdflatex doesn’t work

forward-inverse-searchmiktexpdftextexmaker

I'm using Texmaker 4.4.1, and I want to be able to jump to pdf (Ctrl+RClick) from the tex script, and vice versa.

I tried to use the tips of -synctex=1 in the PDFLatex command, but it doesn't seem to work, nor does the tip here.

My PDFLatex command is

"C:/Program Files (x86)/MiKTeX 2.9/miktex/bin/pdflatex.exe" -interaction=nonstopmode -synctex=1 -shell-escape %.tex

Thank you!

In Options->Confige TexMaker->Commands in Padflatex you should write pdflatex -synctex=1 -interaction=nonstopmode %.tex, or full path to pdflatex.exe. After compilation with .log, .aux and other files this .synctex.gz extra file is created. From the .synctex.gz it reads instructions how to connect buit-in Viewer with code. If you delete this file, close the Viewer and re-open it, program won't be able to jump to code lines.

[Tex/LaTex] Configuring pdflatex for labels in Asymptote

You can put most of the stuff in a configuration file config.asy. The position of the file is in your user DOS directory %USERPROFILE%\.asy. Run the following in a command window to obtain the directory:

>echo %USERPROFILE%\.asy

Create a new or change the existing file config.asy (my own setup)

import settings;
gs        = "C:\usr\gs\gs9.06\bin\gswin64c.exe";
psviewer  = "C:\usr\gs\Ghostgum\gsview\gsview64.exe";
pdfviewer = "C:\usr\SumatraPDF\SumatraPDF.exe";

If TeX is not in your standard search path, you can add

texpath   = "C:\MiKTeX 2.9\miktex\bin\x64\";

Then you can run: "C:/Program Files (x86)/Asymptote/asy.exe" -V -f pdf %.asy

[Tex/LaTex] LaTeX minted Error

The error says ! Package minted Error: You must invoke LaTeX with the -shell-escape flag.

So you have to use the flag -shell-escape when compiling, that is, use it before the name of the file.

To do this, move %.tex to the end.

-interaction=nonstopmode -shell-escape %.tex
