But I have an annoying difficulty to set the correct zoom factor. I'm using dual head, having Emacs on the left screen, and the dvi-viewer on the right one. When I use xdvi I set the zoom factor to 4. This displays about half of the page in an easy-to-read font size, what suits my needs best. Whizzytex uses advi by default. The default zoom factor of advi is much too small for my eyes. It can be increased by one factor (I think once the radix of 2) but it falls back to its original size as soon as I move the point in Emacs. It's also possible to maximize the advi window to fit the screen but this also increases the zoom factor only by one step. The left half of the window is showing the page, the right half is completely white. It's not possible to further increase the zoom factor when the window is maximized. The problem seems to be that advi is resolute in always showing one whole page of the document in full. When advi is started from a shell the option -nocrop solves the problem. Then it's possible to zoom virtually ad infinitum (hitting the > key). But how can this be achieved using Whizzytex? The whizzy-help seems to be silent on this point, otherwise I must have overlooked it (I'm not very good in evaluating the power of odd configuration hints in manuals).=20 Does anybody have a solution for this problem? Thanks for help, Sven P.S. setting Whizytex's default viewer to xdvi doesn't seem to work. xdvi just remains fixed on the first page. PP.S. I'm on KDE under Debian Etch with Emacs 22.1.50.1 and whizzytex 1.3.0. --H8ygTp4AXg6deix2 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: Digital signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFGzJRsV5JTHLAduAYRAk7SAJ9dao/f6p9P1MJHhrp8Vjqo0c9IBQCgw32J iNdvZiNaD085H/yiS8hyc6A= =U8Dx -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --H8ygTp4AXg6deix2-- --===============1140880888== Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline _______________________________________________ help-gnu-emacs mailing list help-gnu-emacs@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-gnu-emacs --===============1140880888==--
