R help - Jan 2013 - Sweave, Texshop, and sync with included Rnw file

Hello everyone.
I am in the process of writing a book in Latex with Texshop, on Mac.
This book contains a lot of R code, hence the need to use Sweave.
I was able to compile Rnw files, and to sync back and forth from the pdf to the
source Rnw.
My problem now is that the book is divided in Chapters, and every chapter is in
its own Rnw file.
I can compile them from the main one (book.Rnw) using the directive

\SweaveInput{chapter1.Rnw}

The problem stands in the fact that like this I am missing synchronization
between the pdf and the source Rnw. If part of text is in book.Rnw I can
synchronize, but if the text is in one of the included files, it just
doesn't work.
I am using the sweave engine found in the following webpage:

http://cameron.bracken.bz/synctex-with-sweavepgfsweave-in-texshoptexworks

Has anybody succeeded in synchronizing with included Rnw files?

Thanks,
Mic

I believe RStudio has done a fairly good job in terms of the
synchronization. If you have to stick to TeXShop, I do not have any
ideas on how to make it work with Sweave child documents.

Hi

Perhaps you need to make a master file and call the chapter files from it

eg (just copying the relevant section from my master GClimate12.Rnw file)


latex preliminaries + R options + begin

% plots
\SweaveInput{GClimate12RX.Rnw}
% Soil 300                     % 15
\SweaveInput{GClimate12SP.Rnw}
% proportions                  % 16
\SweaveInput{GClimate12RS.Rnw}
% cumsum days                 % 17
\SweaveInput{GClimate12RC.Rnw}
closing commands etc
end document

This means that you require 1 setup page rather than individual ones 
and the benefits attached for TOC etc

This is a problem addressed by my patchDVI package, available on 
R-forge.  You have a main file (which can be .tex or .Rnw), and put code 
at the start of each .Rnw file to indicate where to find it.  Then you 
just run Sweave on one of the chapters, and it automatically produces 
the full document.

The sample document here:

http://www.umanitoba.ca/statistics/seminars/2011/3/4/duncan-murdoch-using-sweave-R/

includes an appendix describing how to set this up with TeXShop.
