I always run into this issue when I click on a header in the document-outline sidebar while the Markdown preview from markdown-preview-plus is the active window pane.

Ideally document-outline would be made fully compatible with markdown-preview-plus, i.e. both the actual Markdown document as well as any an opened preview window pane would scroll to the respective section of the document when a header is clicked in the document-outline sidebar, too. That would be awesome! Note that it doesn't have to be synchronized, i.e. it's not necessary that both the actual Markdown and the preview are scrolled together, because markdown-preview-plus already offers that synchronization!

As a presumably easier-to-implement workaround a message could be shown about having the "wrong" window pane active (preview instead of actual document).

The same is true if the active pane shows a PDF preview created with the atom-latex package (which might be the same used by the markdown previewer).

I've looked a bit closer right now, and the issue seems not actually the clicking on a link in the outline. Rather, the outline pane doesn't detect that it should be closed when the active tab changes to a PDF preview - or e.g. the Settings.
