TeXShop: using MacOS's Preview

Hi everybody,

I'm finding TexShop's built in pdf previewer a little annoying and would like to use Apple's Preview to do this job. Any idea's?

I find the scrolling and scaling of the pdf page a problem, I always waste a few mins getting it write before I can read what I have done. I have a 12 inch screen so it gets cluttered and requires a lot of mouse moving. If I could command+tab between preview and texshop this sould solve my problem.

Daniel.

Just a suggestion in case you didn't know: Using cmd+1 you can easily switch view between code and preview.

No I didn't know that! CHEERS.

It makes things much more managable on a small screen. The great thing about TexShop is the pdfsync feature - this only works with the build in pdf viewer ....

You're welcome, just avoid hitting cmd-q (quit) by mistake ... ;-)
