Page Layout ⇒ Show glossaries as chapter in text but show as sections in contents

[Oleiro]

Hello everyone!

I am using the glossaries package to create two different glossaries.

Code: Select all

1
2
\newglossary*{Abbs}{List of Abbreviations}
\newglossary*{ICPs}{List of Institutions, Companies \& Policies}
 
 
הההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההה
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

I am trying to display them just like the list of figure or list of tables within the document. So show them in the same style as a chapter and start on the right page. However, I would like them to be displayed in the style of a section in the contents. So exactly as when I use:

Code: Select all

1
2
\addcontentsline{toc}{section}{\listfigurename}
\listoffigures
 
 
הההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההה

The way I have glossaries in the preambel implemented is the following:

Code: Select all

Code, edit and compile here:

1

3

\usepackage[nogroupskip, 
                        nonumberlist,
                        toc,
                        %section=section,
                        nopostdot]{glossaries}
 
 
הההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההה
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Run LaTeX here

And then I call the glossaries in the standard way:

Code: Select all

1
\printnoidxglossaries
 
 
הההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההה
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

When I use "section=section" it shows the two lists correctly in the contents, however, they are not shown properly in the document. When I comment it out, the lists are shown properly in the document but not in the contents.


How can I have the chapter style in the document but the section style in the contents for both glossaries?

[kaiserkarl13]

Do you actually want the glossaries as sections, or is it more that you want them as unnumbered chapters? It would be weird to have a chapter-level entity (such as a glossary) as a subsection of the previous chapter, but if that's what you want...try this:

Hey kaiserkarl13,

Thanks for your reply. Maybe I was a bit unclear. I don't want them as actual sections but they are supposed to have the same look as the one that you get from using \listoffigures or \listoftables.

I have tried a very basic approach by using \addcontentsline. Here is the code

Code: Select all

\addcontentsline{toc}{section}{\listtablename}
\listoftables 
    
\addcontentsline{toc}{section}{\listfigurename}
\listoffigures
\cleardoublepage
    
\addcontentsline{toc}{section}{List of Abbreviations}
\printnoidxglossaries
\addcontentsline{toc}{section}{List of Institutions, Companies \& Policies}

This gives me almost the desired result but obviously the page number of "List of Institutions..." is wrong.

I attached an image of the look that I need and of the look that I get when I simply use \printnoidxglossaries.
