PDF viewer with auto-reload on file change

Hi everybody, I have tried Foxit Reader and Sumatra PDF as well as a few other PDF viewers not available on this site, but all of them are missing an important feature: automatically reloading the file when it has been modified (preferably at the same position/zoom). This is important for me because I use LaTeX for typesetting, and I'd like to quickly see what I type in the generated PDF file.

Any pointers?

Thanks in advance
-Stephan.

Not really

It's a niche feature, so I doubt most PDF viewer authors have even considered it. I know Sumatra is supposed to be lightweight, so the author probably won't want to add it.

Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
