Hello, 

I am a new user of TeXworks.  I had used WinEdt for years but became increasingly frustrated with the complete absence of readable WinEdt documentation. 
(Yes it has great features, but who can figure out how to use 
them?)

 

I recently installed the new version of MikTex (2.8)
which comes with TeXworks as part of the installation.  After installation, I ran Texworks and compiled a tex file.  It compiled without problem and displayed the correct pdf file.

 

Unfortunately though, there are problems with my installation of TeXworks.  The manual states that
"when you start the program the first time, it creates a folder named
TeXworks in your home folder".  This
did not happen.  I searched the entire
hard disk and the only folder with this name contains just the documentation.

 

Probably as a result of this problem, several of the
documented features of the program don't work.

(1) SyncTexing doesn't work.  Ctrl-click doesn’t do anything in the preview
window or in the source window.

(2) Jump to the pdf file from the context menu in the
source file doesn't work.

(3) Balance delimiter does nothing.

 

I am reluctant to download TeXworks and reinstall the
program, as the version I have is "adapted to the
MiKTeX distribution" (according to MikTeX).

 

Does anyone have any suggestions to solve these
problems?  I run TeXworks and Miktex 2.8
under Windows XP.  Thanks.

 

Bruce Allison



P.S. I apologize if this has appeared twice--I tried to post an earlier version on the 
weekend as my first post and it did not appear.
