Jump to error
If I get an error, clicking on it hasn't got any effect - it doesn't jump on the line with the error.
I searched on the forum, and I found one identical case, but without any solution: http://www.latex-community.org/forum/vi ... 2507#p9831.
How can I solve this?? Thanks

Re: Jump to error
I don't know how you can get the jumping to work, but you can work around it by opening the .log file with the corresponding name to your .tex file (yourfile.tex produces yourfile.log, should be in the same folder) and look at all the output from when Latex did the compiling in there. Find the error, and that will give you a line number for the error at least!
All the best

The problem was that small red arrow; it didn't appear, and also when I was clicking on the error message, nothing happened.

You should take a closer look and you will see the line number right below the error message in the »Build« window.TritonMan wrote:From the screenshot on the link you posted it doesn't look as if TexnicCenter prints out line numbers with the error. [...]

-it seems to be a problem with the path. One folder had a space in its name; removing it, solved the problem
x:\dir1\dir 2\...\files become x:\dir1\dir2\...\files
So if the arrow doesn't appear, check for spaces.
PS:
The error line number was visible, but when the document has got 4000 lines, it is not very easy to search it each time.
