Compilation
Select the .tex file you want to build, then press the play button or Command-S. LateXTree compiles that file and shows its PDF in the preview.
Git & Overleaf
Use the source-control controls to fetch, pull, stage, commit, and push. You can paste a normal Overleaf project URL when connecting.
References
Select a .bib file and open References to manage entries visually. Saving a bibliography file does not trigger an unrelated document build.
Common questions
The PDF did not update after compilation.＋
Confirm that the intended .tex file is selected in Files. LateXTree compiles the selected TeX document, so changing the selection also changes the active build entry point. Review Build Output for missing resources or LaTeX errors.
My project uses custom class or style files.＋
Keep .cls, .sty, bibliography, image, and included TeX files inside the project folder with the paths expected by your source. They are available to the local compiler.
Pull completed but I do not see remote changes.＋
Check the current Git branch and source-control status, then use Fetch followed by Pull. If local and remote edits conflict, resolve the files shown by LateXTree before pulling or pushing again.
Where is my Overleaf Git token stored?＋
The token is stored in macOS Keychain, not as plain text in the project. Set it once in LateXTree and it can be reused for other projects that your token can access.
How do I export the compiled PDF?＋
After a successful build, use the export control in the preview toolbar and choose where to save the PDF.
How do I request a feature or report a problem?＋
Use Request Feature / Feedback inside LateXTree or email [email protected]. Screenshots and exact reproduction steps are helpful.
