Chris Skeels created ticket #259
Printing from built-in PDF viewer

Hi Bernard, I can't remember the last time that I saw this problem. I think that this ticket should be marked as fixed and closed. Another ticket can be opened if this problem ever raises its ugly head again. Cheers, Chris.

Not on the machine I am using the most at the moment. I will upgrade.

Hi Bernard, The % character has certainly been there on occasion, as does the notion of automatic line breaking (which I do have turned on). That said, it is one of those things that was infrequent and not something that I was ever thinking about until it started happening, whereupon it was a bugger to get rid of. Anyway, what you describe has that ring of familiarity to it. I would be happy if my bug was marked as a duplicate of the earlier ones and, if it persists after the next upgrade, it can...

That previous post should have said TeX mode not text. This, I believe ,is just a repeat of Bug #249, which I notice that you have just closed. Has something happened for it to be resolved? It continues to happen for me, although I am still yet to find the cause. That said, it is a tenacious problem once it occurs. It will continually happen at a particular point in the text, no obvious pattern as to which point, although always towards where a line break should ordinarily occur. Once it happens...
-
Further to this, I am mostly in text mode and the key combination cmd-I does seem to induce the problem.

Hi Bernard, This should be closed now. Thanks for the fix. Cheers, Chris.

Hi Bernard, Fair enough. The fact that I find the colour of the prompts (or placeholders) so light that they are difficult to read against the white background of the status bar perhaps says more about my eyesight than anything else. Thanks for the feedback. Cheers, Chris.

LaTeX menu: Curiosities with environments
-
Hi Matt, In my experience, once this happens the unbalanced parameters sit in the log file and kills all subsequent runs of LaTeX. It may not solve the problem but, if you haven’t done so, delete the existing log file (I usually throw out everything except the source files) and start the process as though it is the first time it has been run. That often helps, although is a workaround rather than a real fix for the problem. I hope this helps. Cheers, Chris. From: Joachim Kock via AlphaCocoa-devel...

I see this too when editing .tex files. I am not sure if whether the insertion point being near the middle of a line matters (in the only instance that springs to mind, the cursor was mid-line). In any event, the common feature is that when I inset some sort of environment, say in-line maths, it is not uncommon to see what Joachim describes. Typing command-I sees it all spring back to the middle of the screen again (and the text tidied up as well, in the usual command-I way).

This is probably the right call. I suspect that it was a manifestation of the two monitor problem, .e. something was happening, just not where I was looking. Cheers, Chris.

A Multi-monitor curiosity
-
At the moment, if I try to compare two open windows I get an error saying Diff marks not properly set, offering me the opportunity to either Cancel or Try Again. (Note that the windowns being compared snap into place as they should and the * Windows Comparison * window appears as it should. In this latter window is the following entry: Process "psn ($0000000000000000$)" not found If I choose to Try Again then everything seems to work fine.
-
This is now working perfectly, as far as I can tell, so I am happy for this to be closed.
-
Works like a charm. Perhaps not quite as elegant as being able to access these parameters from the Printing Panel that appears when one pushes cmd-P, but it does the job. I am happy for this to be closed now.
-
This appears to be fixed now and can be closed.

Problem with Ref completions
-
Better but not quite fixed. Try type-setting the following: ( \frac{1}{2} ). For me the key-stroke sequence is ctrl-cmd-m, \frac{, 1, tab, 2 tab, tab to reach the end. It is taking an additional tab on leaving the fraction to exit the math environment than it should

Much as it pains me to say it, Microsoft Word offers such a facility. You can, of course, alter margins using the Rulers (available from the View Menu). Alternatively, from the Print Dialog, select Page Setup followed by the Microsoft Word setting, and then finally select Margins. In Tex model we can do it because we have control of the page. What brought my attention to it was trying to print some Matlab code. Lots of lines were wrapped, making the code more difficult to read, but there was also...

Further to this, if you double click on delta in \delta_{n} then it is \delta_ that is selected, so the { is breaking the word.

Hi Bernard, I’m at home, where I only have a single screen, and so this is from memory (which my wife reliably informs me is usually at fault). In any event, with 2 screens you have a menu bar on both screen. On the screen with the active window, whichever that maybe, the menu bar is bright (like when you have a single screen). On the other screen the menu bar is faded in appearance. This changes as you work with windows on one screen or another. The Status Bar, on the other hand appears only on...

Problems with the Better Templates feature

One further observation. The earlier comments were based on experience on a machine running OS X 10.9.5. I don't observe any of these symptoms on a machine running OS X 10.12.6.

Encoding issues

Based on very limited experience, the drag and drop issue seems much improved with the latest pre-release (9.0b4). It can still take a while for the cursor icon to change but dragging and dropping by itself seems to work regardless of the shape of the cursor and is much more responsive than seen previously, which suggests that the cursor is taking longer to change than it should, i.e. whatever condition is checked to determine the shape of the cursor is being checked later in the sequence than it...

Problems with text selection

For what little it is worth, I have long felt that many of the default menu settings are tailored for very small screens, the LaTeX menu being a good example, but certainly not the only one. I think that it is great that it is possible to configure menus to be compact, if say working on a laptop, but I am not sure that is it is all that desirable if working on a desktop machine which, these days, is likely to have much more extensive real estate available. The problem, as seen here, is that you only...
