Skim just tells the editor to display the line in the file (using the lyxeditor tool in the case of LyX). How it does that is their responsibility.
A workaround could be to use a custom script to call lyx, something like the following: #!/usr/bash /usr/bin/osascript -e "tell application \"LyX\" to activate" /Applications/LyX.app/Contents/MacOS/lyxeditor "$1" $2 You can also do this directly in the Skim preferences (it's a bit hackish, but it should work). Set the command to: /Applications/LyX.app/Contents/MacOS/lyxeditor and the arguments to: "%file" %line; /usr/bin/osascript -e 'tell application "LyX" to activate' Christiaan On 19 Aug 2008, at 9:03 PM, Ivan Werning wrote: > From Skim if I have it set up to use the pdfynsc with LyX it seems to > work, that is it moves the cursor approximately to the right spot in > the file. > > (aside: although, as mentioned in a previous thread of mine here, once > in a while I have to delete a .lyxpipe.in and/or .lyxpipe.out file in > the LyX's Library directory, with LyX closed, to get it all working > again...) > > However, the problem is that it does not raise the LyX application.
