PreviewUpdateService.resetState ​

How to read this API

These are TypeScript APIs compiled into SnapTeX; a .tex project cannot load them at runtime.

  • function name(...) is a helper that your rule imports and calls.
  • apply(...), render(...), extract(...), and collect(...) are callbacks that your rule implements and SnapTeX calls.
  • renderer.name(...), context.name(...), input.name(...), and deps.name(...) are methods SnapTeX supplies to callbacks; do not import or construct them.
  • service.name(...) is an instance method called after your host or test constructs PreviewUpdateService.

Register extension declarations through SNAP_TEX_RULES in src/rules.ts. See Source API Scope for imports, value ownership, output safety, rebuilds, and testing.

Clears retained document-render lifecycle state.

Signature ​

ts
service.resetState(): void

Call relationships ​

  • Calls: SmartRenderer.resetState.
  • Clears: stored diagnostics.
  • Called automatically when: the backend mode changes during render.

Use it in a host or test only when the next update must behave like a fresh preview lifecycle.
