Hi,

I have perfectly working forward search between LyX and Okular, but strangely inverse search does not work.
For example, currently I have a tmp file from LyX and I can inverse search from command line:

Code: Select all

$ lyxclient -g /tmp/lyx_tmpdir.n18490/lyx_tmpbuf18/paperall.tex 257
lyxclient: Connected to /tmp/lyx_tmpdir.n18490/lyxsocket
INFO:server-goto-file-row /tmp/lyx_tmpdir.n18490/lyx_tmpbuf18/paperall.tex 257:


But shift - click in Okular does not do anything. The Editor option is set to Lyx clinet

Code: Select all

lyxclient -g %f %l

in Okular.

I tried to invoke okular from the command line:

Code: Select all

okular /tmp/lyx_tmpdir.n18490/lyx_tmpbuf18/paperall.pdf

But still no luck. Shift-click does not do anything.

And by the way, is there any way to distinguish Okular is running the command and it is not working and Okular is not even sending out the command? Currently I have no idea if something is wrong with Editor settings or Okular.

My LyX version is 2.0.5.1 and Okular version is 0.15.5 with KDE 4.9.5 release 3 in openSUSE 12.2 x64

Thank you,
Joon

Apparently, the inverse search only works in Okular's browser mode. Hopefully this thread will help someone not to waste time on this like me.
