Subject: Re: doc-view functions inside with-current-buffer do not work
Date: Mon, 03 Nov 2014 11:57:40 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <jwvmw88w7d6.fsf-monnier+emacs@gnu.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <87oaso8dj9.fsf@mailbox.org> (Alexander Baier's message of "Mon,  03 Nov 2014 17:16:58 +0100")

Just like point and goto-char, the page displayed by doc-view can be
different in different windows, so selecting the buffer is not enough
for doc-view-goto-page to know which window should be affected.

You need with-selected-window instead of with-current-buffer.
