That sounds really cool. Can you give me a link or at least the name of a piece of software with this feature? Is Overleaf it? Is there an offline piece of software with such a feature? Thanks!
- diffeomorphism 5y agoThat is a standard latex feature called synctex. Pretty much any editor does that.
- iflp 5y agoOverleaf and VSCode (with LaTeX workshop) support this.
- techphys_91 5y agoI believe this functionality is provided by SyncTeX. I'm sure it can be used in other editors, but it can be accessed from the right click menu in TeXstudio.
- jfk13 5y agoQuite a few TeX-oriented editors support something like this; a couple that I've used personally are TeXShop (macOS only), TeXworks (cross-platform). Searching for "SyncTeX" suggests that others such as TeXnicCenter and TeXStudio also support it.
- smegcicle 5y agotexworks from a regular miktex install seems to support it via SyncTeX
- universa1 5y agoLatextools through some other means in sublime text can do this as well, both on windows and linux
- mixedmath 5y agoI have this set up with vim and evince as well. It's very handy.
- balsam 5y agoJust vim and evince? No synctex as suggested (thanks guys!) Found a nice SO thread explaining the gist of it: https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/118489/what-exactly-is-synctex#118491 https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/118489/what-exactly-...
