Kile for Ubuntu 15.04: Closed live preview and can't get it back












0














Whilst editing a Latex document in Kile, I closed the external live preview window and now seem unable to get it back.



It is enabled and set to external window mode in Settings>Configure Kile and enabled under Build>Live Preview.



I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling and nothing seems to work so I'm now at a loss.



Any ideas?

          You can delete the Kile saved ini settings file to make it as if fresh installed:




          1. save your work and close Kile if opened.


          2. Type/paste this in a terminal window (it renames the Kile settings file so you can compare the old and the new versions later): mv ~/.kde/share/config/kilerc ~/.kde/share/config/kilerc.old


          3. start Kile.

          • Thanks, this worked perfectly. I imagine it should be possible to do this without deleting the ini file. do you think I'm missing something or that it's a bug?

          • You're welcome. Can't tell, I don't have Kile installed. You might wanna try and replicate the issue, compare the ini files and maybe file a bug if the case may be.
