Math & Science ⇒ siunitx: Document-wide parameters

[itsmereally]

Hi. Me again.

I've been using siunitx quite alot, but I've recently decided to change how I do things and have run into a problem.

I've been using \sisetup with just italic font, but now I'd like both italic and bold.

Code: Select all

\sisetup{unitmathrm = mathbf, unitmathrm = mathit}

I've tried using this, but it only follows the last instruction. This one gives italic, non-bold units. If I swap the two instructions, I get bold, non-italic units.

Is it possible to get bold italic units?

Thanks

I was just wondering if anyone had an idea on how to do this.

I recommend to read Section 8 (Information for those upgrading from version 1, p. 63ff) and try a combination.

Code: Select all

\sisetup{%
  unit-math-rm = {math-bf,math-it}
}

I've gone through the information for siunitx loads of times, and I don't remember seeing that.

I tried a combination (version 1), but whichever option goes second isn't recognised.

If "mathit" is second, it isn't recognised (ie: error message). "mathit" on it's own works. The same applies when "mathbf" is second.
