nomencl | Math Expressions in Nomenclature

Post by jematos »

I want to use the symbols "|x|" or "\left| x\right|" with nomenclature for example this entry is rejected.

Code: Select all

\nomenclature{$\left|A\right|$}{cardinal de $A$.}
Will anybody help me how to use the symbol "|" in nomenclature?


Best Regards
J. Matos

Try to evade the problem by the \lvert and \rvert commands.

Code: Select all

\nomenclature{$\left\lvert A\right\rvert$}{cardinal de $A$.}

Best regards and welcome to the board
