Dear All, I am trying to set-up forward search in lyx 2.0.0 using skim. I have followed the instructions posted in trac: http://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/7186
Lyx side configuration: (File Handling/File Formats/PDF (pdflatex) [OMITTED]/displayline -b -r $$n $$o $$t Skim side: command: /Applications/LyX.app/Contents/MacOS/lyxeditor arguments: "%file" %line; /usr/bin/osascript \\ -e 'tell application "LyX" to activate' The problem is that when I generate the PDF file, the PDF opens, but the forward and reverse search do not work. I have tried to investigate the issue by starting lyx with the "-dbg" flag. The System call lyx executes is the following (I am omitting the paths): Systemcall: '[OMITTED]/displayline -b -r $$n "[OMITTED]/LyxTemplate.pdf" $$t' It seems that both $$n (the line number) and $$t (the .tex file) are not expanded and thus are not correctly passed down to the displayline script of lyx. Am I doing something wrong? P.S.: I have posted a similar question to the lyx-users but I did not received any reply.
