SumtraPDF steals focus on reverse search

Post by alexr »

Hi,

Using LyX 2.1.4 and SumatraPDF 3.0, configured as instructed: http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/SyncTeX#toc3

Forward search works, but reverse search does the following when double clicking a word in the PDF:

- changes focus to LyX (good)
- moves cursor at the clicked word (good)
- changes focus back to SumatraPDF (BAD!)

Any clues?

It was working fine a long time ago (3 years?) ...

LaTeXguide.org • LaTeX-Cookbook.net • TikZ.org

NEW: TikZ book now 40% off at Amazon.com for a short time.

And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p
