Backward syncing (from PDF to source) works without any additional settings. To make forward syncing work (i.e., jumping from and an included source to the PDF), you need to tell TeXShop which is the “root” document of your project. That is done by adding yet another “magic line” to all included sources:
Add minimal example for syncing
TeXShop '''v4.66''' and later has adopted ConTeXt's syncing feature. When this feature is enabled, Cmd-clicking somewhere in the preview window jumps to the source window and highlight the corresponding line. Vice versa, Cmd-clicking somewhere in a source window jumps to and highlights the corresponding spot in the preview.
To enable this feature, make sure that you are using the latest ConTeXt release, and add the following additional “magic line” at the start of your source document:
% !TEX useConTeXtSyncParser
\setupsynctex[state=start]
Then, typeset your document and try Cmd-clicking either in the source or in the preview.This is a minimal example that allows you to test syncing within TeXShop: <nowiki>% !TEX TS-program = ConTeXt2021% !TEX useAlternatePath% !TEX useConTeXtSyncParser
% !TEX root = <MAIN>.tex
where <code>MAIN.tex</code> is the name of your root source. If your included files are in a different folder, you need to specify the correct (relative) path to the root document.
TeXShop still supports an old syncing method, which is based on Jérôme Laurens's SyncTeX, but using that for ConTeXt is not recommended any longer, so how to use that will not be explained in this document. Just note that the ''Sync Method'' preference in ''Preferences > Typesetting'' is not relevant for the new syncing method described above; it is strongly recommended that it is set to ''SyncTeX (TeX ≥ 2010)'' anyway.
