Lost markdown preview in Kate [solved]

[mani001]

Hi,

a few days ago markdown preview on the right hand side of Kate stopped working. Now I just see white space. I tried re-emerging kde-misc/kmarkdownwebview and, afterwards (after it didn't work), its dependencies

You should install also at least one of package among kde-misc/kmarkdownwebview or kde-misc/markdownpart.

I already had kde-misc/kmarkdownwebview installed (and re-emerged it). I also installed kde-misc/markdownpart, just in case...but no, that's not it. Moreover, I have the markdown USE flag, and a couple of weeks ago it was working like a charm

If I choose markdownpart (instead of kmarkdownwebviewpart) in the embedded file associations for markdown, it kind of works but it seems the preview provided by markdownpart is not as good as the one provided by kmarkdownwebviewpart (worse-looking, and no real-time updates)

EDIT:

I take it back: markdownpart is just fine. Real-time update actually works. I might have forgotten to toggle on the corresponding (sort of "play") button. Also, it seems it's the way to go since it's a maintained piece of software (https://invent.kde.org/utilities/markdownpart) unlike KMarkdownWebView (https://github.com/KDE/kmarkdownwebview)
