Bug ID: 417723
Summary: preview doesn't succeed too often
Product: kile
Version: 2.9.92
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: user interface
Assignee: michel.lud...@kdemail.net
Reporter: didier.heris...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
I'm using lualatex to compile my documents.
I would like to use the preview feature, but got 'red' light at the end of
compilation much too often.
Lualatex returns an error code when it quits, after the flashing yellow light,
i have the red one at the end of the process.
What is frustrating is that lualatex produces a PDF file most of the time, kile
could show a reasonnable preview from it.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. create document lualatex escapes with error code 1, but output a PDF file
anyway (command line for the preview: lualatex --synctex=1
--interaction=nonstopmode --shell-escape
--output-directory=/tmp/kile-livepreview.HbSljY DS06.tex )
2.
3.
OBSERVED RESULT
No preview displayed, but a 15 pages PDF can be found in the temporary
directory
a message displayed:
[Live-Preview-LuaLaTeX] terminé avec le code de sortie 1
on the bottom-right corner of the editor side, close to the livepreview icon, a
red dot.
EXPECTED RESULT
As a PDF is obtained, even if errors are reported, display a preview generated
from this PDF file.
Maybe a red message can be superposed, so the user can be aware of the errors
as soon as it happens.
Preview should display an output as soon as something can be displayed. Nothing
displayed should only happen if the processor ends with "no PDF output"
