Hi Kieran, Using F 3.0.0, if you don't save the file a temp filename is generated. The output goes to a file in /tmp (Linux) which is a randomly generated name different each time. So how are you even looking at that? Can you explain in more detail your setup? Layout output to `/tmp/lilypond-jSjJ

Hey, Frescobaldians! Is it acceptable to hijack a thread, if the subject is completely applicable? ;) I’m wondering if anyone else runs into the situation that the Frescobaldi-generated PDF viewed by an external application (in my case, either Preview or Skim, on Mac OS) suddenly stops updati

When I want to try a lilypond snippet using Frescobaldi, I normally create a new file and I compile it without save it explicitly. Frescobaldi saves it for me in a temporary folder (in my Frescobaldi settings I have "Save the document if possibile" checked). For example if I do it now, in the lily
