3.1 vscode configuration

Put the following code into the configuration file settings.json, pay attention to the position before the last curly brace

  "latex-workshop.view.pdf.viewer": "external",
  "latex-workshop.view.pdf.external.viewer.command":
         "D:/AppData/SumatraPDF/SumatraPDF.exe",  //注意修改路径，为安装的 SumatraPdf 的路径
  "latex-workshop.view.pdf.external.viewer.args": [
          "%PDF%"
      ],

3.2 Configure reverse search

Reverse search is helpful for quickly locating the source code location corresponding to the document. Add the following code to settings.json, which is also in front of the last curly brace

   "latex-workshop.view.pdf.external.synctex.command":
       "D:/AppData/SumatraPDF/SumatraPDF.exe",  //注意修改路径
   "latex-workshop.view.pdf.external.synctex.args": [
       "-forward-search",
        "%TEX%",
       "%LINE%",
       "%PDF%",
   ],

Do some configuration in the SumatraPdf software, open the advanced options through the settings, a configuration file will pop up, we only need to add the following code at the end of the configuration file

InverseSearchCmdLine = "D:\Microsoft VS Code\Code.exe" "D:\Microsoft VS Code\resources\app\out\cli.js"  --ms-enable-electron-run-as-node -r -g "%f:%l"
EnableTeXEnhancements = true

双击Then you can jump to the vscode source code part in the pdf document
