Is there a plan to add support for sequence diagram? Something that can be used like on hackmd.io (I think they are using mermaide ).

hi ,thanks you develop this plugin!
I hava some suggestions

• sublime auto preview when open markdow of file. not need press alt+m
• code and preview should synchronized scrolling

I am sorry for bad english

Images unfortunately seem to be displayed in original size and not scaled down to a size that would fit the window. I seem not be able to change this with css since the img property is not supported.
Would be nice if images would dynamically scale to fit the window width.

This is the only thing that is really bothering me apart from this the plugin is very helpful 👍🏻

First time user of Sublime and packages (and beginner in web development in general), but after I followed the installation instructions for the package, the preview does not work and crashes. Attempted to remove the package via Package Control, but it crashes before I can remove it.

I do see this "not a directory" error in the console:

Hello Math,
Thanks for this plugin.

The preview is working well (it opens the two-panels window when I open an md file)

BUT

When I type something in the left one (the md file), the preview is not updating anymore. There is a tiny delay, that proves something is processing, but the preview does not change.

FYI :

• If I save the file, close the window and open the file once again, the preview is showing up with the last update.
• I am on windows 7, and using SublimeText 3, build 3126.

An idea about the cause of the issue ?

Thanks for the great plugin!

I'm attempting to alter the font face. I've tried each of these methods:

MarkdownLivePreview: Edit Custom CSS File:

body {
    font-family: "CMU Serif";
}

I've also tried to target the p selector without effect.

MarkdownLivePreview.sublime-settings -- User:

// Your settings for MarkdownLivePreview. See the default file to see the different options.
{
    "font_face": "CMU Serif",
}

Also without effect.

And finally I tried: MarkdownLivePreviewSyntax.sublime-settings:

{
    "show_menus": false,
    "show_tabs": false,
    "show_minimap": false,
    "gutter": false,
    "rulers": [],
    "word_wrap": true,
    "font_face": "CMU Serif",
}

Where all flags work as expected except for the font face.

How can I change the font face of the preview pane?

Sublime Text 3:版本 3126
mac版本：MacOS Sierra 10.12.6

1.打开插件“AdvancedNewFile”的Readme.md文件时，
2.Alt(option)+M
结果：原文件内容被清空，LivePreview内容也是空白的

When making a numbered list that is written as:
1.
2.
3.
etc...
the preview shows these first as correct, but once text is added after the period(regardless of if space is left between the period and the first character) it will change the preview to be a bullet point instead the proper number.

Greetings,

from the README I took, that this plugin uses markdown2 for its internals and thus it also delivers the possibility to enable flags like

https://github.com/trentm/python-markdown2/wiki/tables

Is there a way to specify this via MLP?

Cheers

I have a 70KB markdown file that around line 1700 (or 53KB of content) gets incredibly slow to edit and the MD preview pane stops to add any more lines after this, even tough it updates accordingly previous lines if I change them.

I tried writting and looking only directly at the preview and it really works and feels natural, except for there is no insert indicator | (that shows where I'm putting the text down currently).

Would it be possible to show preview only (similar to #22 ), but also show the insert marker? so someone who's accustomed to markdown already would write and look at the preview directly

When using the package, no preview displayed.
I have tried reinstalling and restarting and I have the same issue.

When attempting to edit a markdown file, the live preview pane is not showing anything.

Is there some way to have the code blocks(e.g. ```javascript) highlighted in the preview tab?

It currently does not support Horizontal Rules for Markdown as seen here: https://markdown-it.github.io/

Hi @math2001 great package. I'm having an issue though. I have this markdown file that is not displayed fully. See the screenshot.

Any hints why this might be so?

Thanks for your efforts, the plugin is really helpful.
I faced with a problem with displaying of local images, I'm getting 404 pictures instead of my ones.
Is it possible to display local images right from the plugin (i.e. file://), or I need to run a local server to serve pictures to it? I took a glance over the documentation but found nothing.

Probably a screenshot might be clarifying a little bit. Pictures are located in the same folder as markdown is and I'm pretty sure names are correct. I've tried to use ./name as well, but it didn't help.

ST 3114

Hi.
I manually installed plugin in ST3130... and got this error in ST console:

...
reloading plugin MarkdownLivePreview.image_manager
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib64/sublime-text-3dev/sublime_plugin.py", line 107, in reload_plugin

...

It turns out that there are external dependencies to beautifulsoup4 package.

It crashes Sublime Text when trying to do anything in the tab the markdown text resides after it has been launched from the Command Palette. Simply launching it does not invoke the crash but neither does it show the preview window. Immediately after clicking into the tab shows another tab (the preview) and the editor goes down blazing (watch it here). Console shows nothing.

Any hints on the possible cause and how to avoid it?

When using numbered lists the preview shows bullet points instead of the correct number. Using sublime build 3126 and newest MarkdownLivePreview from packageControl.

Hi,
at first - thank you for sharing this gem with community!

Too bad, it seems there are some issues with it.
As soon I open up a larger document, entire ST3 screen became messed up (see screenshot below).

ST3 itself reports:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Program Files\Sublime Text 3\sublime_plugin.py", line 537, in on_deactivated
v = sublime.View(view_id)
File "C:\Program Files\Sublime Text 3\sublime.py", line 707, in init
self.selection = Selection(id)
RuntimeError: maximum recursion depth exceeded while calling a Python object
error: plugin_host has exited unexpectedly, plugin functionality won't be available until Sublime Text has been restarted

Any ideas how to handle this?

Hi!

I tried to search for a similar bug here, among the issues, but found none. So my problem:

1. Try to open a markdown file (.mdown)
2. Hit alt+m (I'm on OSX Sierra 10.12.5)
3. The Preview tab appears but it's empty

Created a screenshot with the console open:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/h9uesebxft3e65r/Screenshot%202017-07-28%2010.08.29.png?dl=0

Tried with only one h1

Looked for this error in so, and found something related to python (my python version is 2.7) and character encoding. I'm not sure if it's related to this issue at all, but might help:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/21129020/how-to-fix-unicodedecodeerror-ascii-codec-cant-decode-byte

Can you please let me know what am I doing wrong?

lovely plugin!
However I'd love to see the preview (optionally) in a new tab instead of a new window. Is it possible by any chance?
The annoying thing is the fact that the source file (I mean the text view) is moved to the new window and when closing the window I also close the source file (as specified in the README).
Is there any workaround? It would be good enough to quickly bring back the source file from the original st3 window

@math2001 awesome plugin! Hard to find in google still but it will catch on I'm sure

It would be great if clicking on markdown file would only open the preview (in new tab). Then just add a button to the very top "Edit", when you click it - it opens the live editing. This would be the best as 90% of the time we still open markdown just to read (or see if anything should be changed) and it's a bit annoying to have popup all the time.

Thanks!

The column headers are not appearing properly. The example below the second column, description does not appear in the preview.

Is it possible to add image preview or sublime has some limitations in this area?

This plugin seems to crash anything above 200 kB. Either that, or inputs become completely unresponsive.

When I'm editing the md file, the preview seems to always want to stay at the top of the file. That means if I want to preview what I'm currently typing I have to go over to the preview window and scroll to what I've just entered - then when I keep typing, the preview window jumps back to the top of the file. Is there a possibility of tracking where the user is typing in the md document and syncing the preview window to that position?

sublime build 3126
MLP v2.4.5

Using ST3 build 3126 x64 in win10 x64.
I wanted to upgrade MLP from 2.3.4 to 2.3.6.
First I got: An error occurred while trying to upgrade MarkdownLivePreview. Please restart Sublime Text to finish the upgrade

Then at ST3 restart I got some messages in console which I unfortunately I didn't keep.
Then I uninstalled it, and tried re-installing it,
but its installation never finishes:
it stays at Installing package MarkdownLivePreview.

This is what I I'm constantly getting in console now:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "package_control.loader in C:\Users\Kostas\AppData\Roaming\Sublime Text 3\Installed Packages\Package Control.sublime-package", line 444, in do_swap

I tried closing+restarting ST3 several times, as well as checked in Task Manager that only one SublimeText3.exe instance is running.
Nothing helped.

Hi,
There is no "Edit current file" command in command Palette, Only "Edit custom CSS file".

Press Option+M or Control+M get nothing either.

How is this happened?
Is this plugin not able to work with OSX?

Installed the package okay but alt-m doesn't bring up a preview window. Also, MarkdownLivePreview: Edit Current File doesn't show up in Command Palette. The only thing that does show up in Command Palette is MarkdownLivePreview: Edit Custom CSS File.

Using Sublime 3, up-to-date.

• This plugin seems not has code highlight function
  
• And if I open md file include hexo's frontmatter this plugin may has been in trouble and will not work! Please fix it !
  

I have added the "word_wrap":true setting to my syntax specific settings file but the preview is still not wrapping:

My settings file:

// These settings override both User and Default settings for the MarkdownLivePreviewSyntax syntax
{
    "show_tabs": true,
    "word_wrap": true
}

Currently, when updating the live preview for a document that includes an image the scroll jumps to the wrong place if editing somewhere in the document below that image. I assume this is because the scroll doesn't include consideration of the image height?

Depending on how difficult this is to fix, another potential solution might be to offer an option to scroll back to the same position in the document that was open before updating the preview, if that is possible? While this doesn't sync the two panes it at least means you can manually choose where to view in the document rather than it jumping to the incorrect place because of the images.

If remote image resources are added to a markdown file the preview shows a work in progress icon while downloading the file from web. Unfortunately the preview is not automatically updated after finished download. So it looks like download never finishes.

I am using ST3 3139 x64 on Win10.

Experience improvment.

When switch to other tab, tab losing focusing render before shoud hide the preview panel.

I have a file similar to below and it loads the image, but hides the rest of the text afterward. It only shows the preview correctly if I remove the "img" tag or the "a" tag.

GRcalculator dockerfile

The dockerfile in this container... etc. etc.

Possible? It opens in a corner all the time, little bit annoying.

Would it be possible to make the set_clipboard call optional? I find that really gets in the way when I need to paste something into a document I'm writing.

Would it be possible to use LivePreview for UNSAVED file?
(I'm very often drafting text in SublimeText then copy / paste somewhere else - and not saving these source files.)

windows 10
install from package control

reloading settings Packages/User/Package Control.sublime-settings
Package Control: The dependency 'bs4' is not currently installed; installing...
Package Control: The dependency 'bs4' is not available
Package Control: The dependency 'bs4' could not be installed or updated
reloading settings Packages/User/Preferences.sublime-settings

shrug

I would like to be able to start a markdown live preview pane via the command palette. I won't remember the keyboard shortcut.

Maybe it would be better to remove HTML comments before render as phantom.
