Forward search does not work

Post by super_jak1985 »

Hi everybody.

Im faced with a problem when using TexnicCenter together with Yap. When i compile and view a document, then TexnicCenter/Yap are supposed to bring me to the page i was actually working on in the document (usually, there is this neat circle around the current position). Thing is: It only works when i am on the first page of my document. When being on page 2-end, this feature does not work.

In my profile "LaTeX->DVI" under the Tab "viewer" i have the following entries:

Path: C:\[...]\MIKTEX\BIN\YAP.EXE
Project output:
the box "command line" is checked and i have the command
-1 "%bm.dvi"

Searching in output:
the box "command line" is checked and i have the command
-1 -s %l"%Wc" "%bm.dvi"

In Yap, i have activated the inverse search (i have not altered any of these settings since the installation of TexnicCenter at all).

Does anybody know how to fix this?

Thanks in advance,
Fabian Werner

Oh sorry, i just had to tell Yap to smoothly scroll through the pages (one of the buttons at the top). After doing that, everything worked fine.
