Hello,
I'm looking for a possibility to create a glossary with 3 columns
(formula, short description, description) using lyx . It it possible to
do this with lyx natively?
Googeling around I found the package glossaries - but using it I don't
get a glossary generated. It seems there are calls missing to generate
.gls-files on the base of .glo-files using makeindex.
perhaps a small example can help?
* document -> LaTeX-preample

\usepackage[nonumberlist,numberline,acronym,toc]{glossaries}
\newlength{\glsfixfirstwidth}
\setlength{\glsfixfirstwidth}{5em}
\newcommand*{\longtablealign}{l}
\newglossarystyle{symbvz}{
\renewenvironment{theglossary}
{\begin{longtable}[\longtablealign]{@{}ccp{0.75\textwidth}@{}}}
{\end{longtable}}
\renewcommand*{\glossaryheader}{
\textbf{Symbol} & \textbf{Einheit} & \textbf{Beschreibung} \\
\endhead}
\renewcommand*{\glsgroupheading}[1]{}
\renewcommand*{\glossaryentryfield}[4]{
\vspace{0.1cm}
\glsentryuseri{##1}% Symbol
& \si{\glsentryuserii{##1}}% Einheit
& \glstarget{##1}{##2}% Name
\\
}
\renewcommand*{\glossarysubentryfield}[6]{
\glossaryentryfield{##2}{##3}{##4}{##5}{##6}}
\renewcommand*{\glsgroupskip}{}
}
\makeglossaries
* a ERT in lyx-document to generate an entry
---------------------------------------------------------
\newglossaryentry{Masse}{
name={Masse},
user1={\ensuremath{m}},
user2={\ensuremath{kg}},
%sort=a
}
* a ERT in lyx-document to generate the glossary

Many thanks for help! - Tino
