Dear list, While using the marveluos new preview feature in Kile 2.0, I noticed that when previewing some text it appears standard formatted in the bottom window. In my paper, I use different settings in the document's preamble. The question is, can I set the preview function to use my settings instead of the standard ones? Linked to that, I learned how to use the inverse search, using for example the mouse's middle button in KDVI. How does one uses forward search? (i.e., selecting some text in Kile to open the DVI file exactly at the location of that text.

Ahh... you are right of course. When preparing the test case, I realised I used the indentation commands _after_ \begin{document} instead of the preamble: \setlength{\parindent}{0pt} \setlength{\parskip}{1.25ex} Moving those in the preamble fixed it, sorry for the noise (I should know better and check before posting) > > Linked to that, I learned how to use the inverse search, using for > > example the > > mouse's middle button in KDVI. > > How does one uses forward search?

Excellent, that is what I was looking for :) Sigh... it's late in this part of the world (almost 12 in the night). I did check Kile's handbook, but while reading the "Forward search" link, I did not notice the "Forward search between Kile and KDVI" link below. Tztztz... Thanks again, all problems solved! :) Adrian PS: I realise it is off-topic, about my "Converting EPS" post: I Googled about ImageMagick, but I did not find a solution for the missing modules, so I am still unable to use EPS files with Kile: ~$ identify -list format [...] identify: unable to open module file `/usr/lib/ImageMagick-6.2.4/modules-Q16/coders/magick.la': No such file or directory. Any hint/website/point to another mailing list would be greatly appreciated. -- Adrian Dusa Romanian Social Data Archive 1, Schitu Magureanu Bd 050025 Bucharest sector 5 Romania Tel./Fax: +40 21 3126618 \ +40 21 3120210 / int.101 |

If you don't get an error message from the convert call and only the eps has a crappy format I'm also running out of ideas. You could also check the ubuntu bug tracking system. Regrads, Thomas |

The problem seems to be solved once upgrading to (K)ubuntu Gutsy. The EPS files were not crappy at all, since I tested different files with different software (R, Gimp, Inkscape). The problem was most probably related to the ghostscript drivers. However, the current EPS files opened either by KGhostView or Kile do not support transparency. In the PDF file they look ok, though.
