Dear Timothy, for all, who are interested in, I finally got it to work (with Your help and also with chatgpt). I wrote in okular/settings/configure okular/edior:
> custom editor gvim --servername GVIM --remote-send "<ESC>:e %f<CR>:call > SetCursorAdjusted(%l,%c)<CR>" And I wrote in .vimrc function! SetCursorAdjusted(line, col) " Adjust line number down by 1 let lnum = a:line - 1 " Use the cursor function to set the cursor position call cursor(lnum, a:col) endfunction Now I start gvim with gvim --servername GVIM and everything works fine!
