Page Layout ⇒ Header for Nomenclature

[loolabell]

Hi!

I'm relatively new to Latex and am struggling a bit with the formatting. I've managed to compile the Nomenclature and rename it as "List of Symbols". Because of the number of symbols in the list, it goes onto 2 pages. The header at the top of the second page of symbols doesn't seem to recognise that it should be saying "List of Symbols" and insists on calling it "List of Tables", which comes before. Help, please!!!

Hi,

it would be better if you post some compilable code (in the sense of a minimal working example) allowing us to reproduce the problem and see your particular settings. Anyway, you could try adding

Run LaTeX here

So for that to work you need a batch file which is a text file with the following:
makeindex.exe filename.nlo -s nomencl.ist -o filename.nls

Replace the filename with the name of the LaTex the code is saved to, save the text file as .bat, run it and compile the LaTex file. You should see that the heading for the second page of the "List of Symbols" says "List of Figures".

I'll give the recommendation a go and get back to you shortly!
