Description
Environment
- TeXstudio: 2.12.16
- Qt: 5.12.1
- OS: Windows 10
- TeX distribution: TeX Live 2019 in WSL
Expected behavior
Now I have installed TeX Live 2019 in WSL.
I want to use TeXstudio in Windows 10 and compile files via TeX Live 2019 in WSL.
Actual behavior
Now I can define user command to compile files via bash.exe, e.g., "C:\Windows\WinSxS...\bash.exe" -i -c "?me)".
However, I cannot do forward and inverse search.
I notice that the reason is the path in synctex.
How to reproduce
Can TeXstudio.exe resolute the path in synctex? Or, does TeXstudio want to develop a WSL edition?

Research direction
Start by reproducing the Windows 10 setup with TeXstudio 2.12.16, TeX Live 2019 in WSL, and compilation through bash.exe. Investigate how forward and inverse search use Synctex paths, and define done as a confirmed path-resolution approach or a clearly documented limitation.
