Hi Paul

I find that if you do update as opposed to view, the page stays at the same place but you have to "redraw" the screen.
This you can do by a quick page up/down. I dont know if that fits your bill.

The standard viewer for pdf files is acrobat but, there seem to be no way

pdf-files using xpdf. Put this as your viewer for pdf (instead of acroread)


xpdf -remote $$i $$p$$i

It features:
    * if the file is not already open it will start a new window
    * if there is a window with the file open it will reload it.

Indeed, if there is a window with the file open it will reload it, but the xpdf will show the first page and not the current one. Is there some way of getting the current page automatically shown up after reloading the file?
