Re: [TeXstudio-list] Call internal pdf viewer from embedded pdf viewer... and vice versa?

[Jan S. <sun...@gm...>]

Hmm, right now multiple pdf windows don't work in a sensible way (as far
as i have seen it), thus i don't see the necessity to include more
options except for complicating things.
I would rather suggest to remove txs://view-pdf as it is redundant to
txs:/view and txs:/view-pdf-internal etc.
