[Kile-devel] Live-preview and TiKz externalise folder

[Jasper M. <jas...@gm...>]

Good day all,
 When using TiKz and externalise as in:

\usepackage{tikz}
    \usetikzlibrary{external}
    \tikzexternalize[prefix=TiKz/]
    \tikzexternalize

Kile's live-preview complains that the TiKz folder does not exist (in the
temporary copy)
 This can be overcome by
touching a file like:
 touch TiKz/.placeholder
and adding this to the project.

Or I can remove the
    \tikzexternalize[prefix=TiKz/]
Which is undesirable as I am trying to keep the root of the project as
clean as possible, especially for those who will use this document after me
for whome LaTeX is already scary enough 8)

Although the workaround is acceptable, It would be great if there were some
smarts to detect this folder on live-preview, especially for non-project
files.
