#1583 Go to source / go to pdf not working correctly in twocolumn layout

[Anonymous]

I use the scrartcl class along with the multicol package. When I want to jump to and fro (mostly from pdf to source), the cursor lands not at the right position (the actual position where it shows up appears somewhat erratic to me, mostly lower in the source than intended).

OS Win7
TXS . TeXstudio 2.10.4 (hg 5633:150614dcede6)
Qt-Version 5.5.1, kompiliert mit Qt 5.5.1 R
NVIDIA GeForce

Thanks for the great program!

please attach an example file with a description on how to see the problem.

...it seems to be associated with the geometry package, removing it leaves the go to functionality intact:

TeXworks shows the same behavior. Therefore I assume that it's a bug either in synctex (writing an incorrect synctex.gz file) or a bug in the pdf engine poppler (incorrectly mapping the document position to the synctex structure).

[Rudi82]

Ok, now that I know at least which command is responsible for the malfunctioning, I can continue with my work by commenting out the geometry call. And the formatting will be done when (almost) everything is written down.

Thanks for your help, Jan & Tim.

your example works here with the latest txs code

Yep, works for me as well. Thank you!
