Hi, first of all, thanks a lot for working on Kile, which is an excellent tool to write papers, theses etc. in Latex. Yesterday I read the announcement of the live preview feature and couldn't resist... As I am writing a paper, I compiled kile from the live-preview branch and I am testing the new feature :-) Some observations: - the "Synchronize cursor position with preview document" button seems not to work: whether it is pressed or not, the preview document always follows the cursor position - when the "Live Preview for Current Document" toggle is off, the preview document disappears. I think it would be very useful to leave the preview document visible even when the live preview feature is off - I didn't find a shortcut for the live preview toggle. I believe a shortcut would be useful as well So far (a few hours of testing), the live preview feature seems to work well. If I find problems or have some comments, I will email them. Thanks, Stefano |

There is currently no pre-defined shortcut for that action, but you can easily assign one now in Settings / Configure Shortcuts. > So far (a few hours of testing), the live preview feature seems to > work well.

Thanks again, Michel |
