Help with finding style file

[Uwe Ziegenhagen]

Hi Patrick, this won‘t work. In TeX Works you only define the paths where TeXworks find the LaTeX binaries (pdflatex, xelatex, etc) This does not have much to do with the paths those tools use to find files. I‘ll try to write a small blog article on this tomorrow.

I added the path for my .sty file to the list, closed the program and restarted it and it still can't find the file. I've placed my .sty file in a number of different places on the tree, each time adding the path to TeXWorks Typesetting tab and it always complains it can't find the file. In the meantime, I've copied the contents of the .sty file to the preamble, which works, but I don't want that much info in every preamble, obviously.
