TexSlide maintains detailed LaTeX compilation logs to facilitate debugging of LaTeX code errors. Understanding TexSlide’s log paths will help you analyse LaTeX compilation issues.
Configuration Directory
All configuration files and log files for TexSlide are stored uniformly in the configuration directory. The specific paths for each operating system are as follows:
- Replace
<username>with your actual system username.
Do not manually delete the user folder in the configuration directory. Deleting this folder will result in permanent loss of all custom configurations and templates.
Log Files
Log files are stored in the log folder within the configuration directory and serve as essential tools for diagnosing LaTeX compilation problems.
tmpfile.tex：Temporary file containing the most recently compiled LaTeX code, used for viewing the actual compiled code, debugging complex formulas, and verifying syntax.tmpfile.log：Output log of the most recently compiled LaTeX code, containing detailed processing information and error messages, used for checking compilation errors.
The log files retain only the output from the most recent LaTeX compilation. For successfully compiled documents, the system directly uses cached results and therefore does not regenerate log records.
