Adding TexLive to TexStudio's understanding of path
latex, linux
Solution
I was able to add TeXLive to TeXstudio's `$PATH` through the GUI by following these steps:
- Open "Configure TeXstudio..." from the "Options" dropdown menu.
- Check "Show Advanced Options".
- Go to the "Build" section.
- In the "Build Options", fill in the TeXLive bin directory in the "Commands ($PATH)" field.
TeXstudio should now find the TeXLive binaries without problem.
Problem
Not sure if this is the right forum for this question (although this similar SO question encouraged me), but I can't get TexStudio to find my installation of TexLive. I'm running Linux Mint 17. I've followed the instructions here by adding `/usr/local/texlive/2014/bin/x86_64-linux` to my `.bashrc` and even added it to both `/etc/profile` and `/etc/environment` just for good measure. When I start a Terminal, typing `pdflatex` works just fine. But TexStudio continues not to be able to find the `pdflatex` executable complaining `Error: Could not start the command: pdflatex -synctex=1 -interaction=nonstopmode "foo".tex` So my question is: to what does the texlive install directory have to be added so that TexStudio knows where to find it?
