Hi,
when activating instant preview in Tools>Preferences>Display, one can
preview a latex snippet in the lyx work area by inserting it in a
preview inset (Insert>Preview).
However, since version 3.1.0 it does not work anymore, in the sense
that the preview is not generated. As this feature is working correctly
on all other platforms, investigating a bit evidenced that downgrading
the dll to version 3.0.7 solves the issue.
I am attaching an example document demonstrating the issue. The latex
source used for instant preview is generated in the lyx temporary
directory (/tmp/lyx_tmpdir.XXXXXXXXXXXX/) but latex is never run on it
to generate the images. As lyx launches latex in a forked process, this
has to be a fork problem, but no error is issued. The forked process
seems to never run, simply.
Testing on 2.3.4.2-2, it seems that the file is processed:
from lyxpreviewE14071.log
This is pdfTeX, Version 3.14159265-2.6-1.40.21 (TeX Live 2020/Cygwin)
(preloaded
format=latex 2020.4.22) 28 MAY 2020 19:21
....
! LaTeX Error: File `qtree.sty' not found.
the file seems in texlive-collection-humanities
after installing also another package
texlive-collection-pstricks
I was able to have an instant preview
can you check if the test 2.3.4.2-2
solve the issue also for you ?
Than I can promote it to stable
Regards
Marco
