Glossaries package - No linebreaks

Post by mitap »

Hi all,

I'm using the glossaries package to create a list of acronyms:
\printglossary[type=\acronymtype,style=listdotted]

However, since some of my entries (on the right side) are pretty long, they warp onto the next line, e.g.:

iid . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .independently and identically
distributed


How can I reduce the space between acronym and word so that everything fits onto one line?

Best wishes,
Mitap

Try changing the value of the length \glslistdottedwidth for example:

Code: Select all

\setlength{\glslistdottedwidth}{.4\textwidth}
