Hello,
I’m using the latest version of RStudio . When I knit an R Markdown file to HTML, I no do not get a preview either in a new window or in the Viewer pane. Switching the preferences in Global Options doesn’t change anything, but the problem persists. The actual HTML file is created correctly, it just doesn’t display a preview in RStudio. I’m looking for guidance on how to restore the HTML preview functionality.
If you go to Tools > Global Options... > R Markdown > Basic, is "Show output preview in:" set to "Viewer Pane"?
Hi,
yes i ve already checked that and it still doesn t work
Does resetting RStudio's state help?
Yes, unfortunately, I tried several methods, but they did not work
What operating system are you using (Linux, Mac, or Windows)?
I ask because we recently ran into a situation on some Linux configurations where we saw similar symptoms with RStudio. The problem was the required package xdg-utils was not installed. So if you are on Linux, check that. More details at RStudio silently fails to open links when xdg-open not found · Issue #16750 · rstudio/rstudio · GitHub.
thank you, but no, my operating system is Windows
