I've had similar problems on MacOS, though not recently. I edit LaTeX source .tex in vim and trigger generation of the PDF using atchange (https://alum.mit.edu/www/toms/atchange.html). It could be that your PDF file has not been fully written when Skim starts displaying. If so, perhaps you could have Skim watch a copy and generate the copy rapidly by a cp. (Note: On MacOS if you move the file Skim is looking at somewhere else (e.g. to /tmp) then Skim will follow it to the new location and you won't get updates or you will be watching the previous version.) Hope this helps. Tom _______________________________________________ Skim-app-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/skim-app-users
