Latex-workshop: vscode.previewHTML error

[iainmstott]

When trying to view a preview of the LaTeX document, I get an error "command 'vscode.previewHtml' not found". This wasn't happening only 2 days ago, but VSCode has updated since then. Release notes for the new version 1.33.0 suggests that the 'vscode.previewHtml' command has now been removed.

To reproduce: in the environments below, Ctrl+Shift+P > "Latex: Open Preview to the Side"
(or other preview commands). Error message shows in bottom right.

Expected behaviour: compile document. No error logs, as the command doesn't run in the first place.

LaTeX workshop hasn't been using vscode.previewHTML since 9ccc45d.

Also, I don't see any "Latex: Open Preview to the Side" command. The ones I do see are "LaTeX Workshop: View LaTeX PDF file" and "LaTeX Workshop: View LaTeX PDF file in VSCode tab" both of which work as intended for me.

I have the same environment as you: L-W 6.3.0 on VSC 1.33 on Win 10

The command "Latex: Open Preview to the Side" is provided by latex-preview, which is an other extension.

I am seeing this issue with Latex Workshop 7.3.0. I have no other Latex extensions installed. When I disable, Latex Workshop, I lose the ability to preview tex files. When I enable, I get command 'vscode.previewHtml' not found. I'm on VS Code 1.36.1
