problem with using Skim as pdf viewer

Post by alessio68 »

Hello ,

I have a problem using Skim with Lyx. I want to use the synctex function. I follow all the instructions on this site https://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/SyncTeX , but instead of opening Skim it opens the default Preview.

Hello,

At first, I am not latex advanced user.

Try to recheck entered path and command in the terminal.

Or try to use another pdf viewer.

I am linux user, and after any pdf build complete okular or evince (pdf viewers) automatically redraw pdf to the newest state. LyX or cli, does not matter.
