I am writing my research notes in org-mode and they contain many LaTeX formulas. I use the preview feature ( C-c C-x C-l ) a lot. As the notes are rather large, I also tend to use an indirect buffer, to jump around to have a quick glance to refer to some other part of the text. While the indirect buffer will show the rendered formulas when I open it (assuming the original buffer was showing them), I cannot make them go doing C-c C-c . Conversely, if I open the indirect buffer while the original buffer is NOT showing the formulas, I cannot generate them in the indirect buffer. I get a message saying

user-error: Can’t preview LaTeX fragment in a non-file buffer

So, is there an easy way to enable org-mode to render and hide the formulas in indirect buffers?

I would not mind if doing this would mess-up (i.e. also hide, also display) the formulas in the main buffer (as long as I can re-render/display once I am back there).
