glossaries problem in texlive and texstudio

Post by harry747 »

Hello.
I have a problem getting glossaries and acronyms to work. It works a few times, and then I compile again and I get tons of error messages :-( what am I doing wrong?

I have the \usepackage line and the \makeglossaries line in the preamble. So where should the \newacronym and \newglossaryentry lines go? In the document itself? In the preamble? Before or after \makeglossaries?

The \printglossaries line is at the end of the document, just before the \tableofcontents line, in case that makes any difference.

glossaries problem in texlive and texstudio

Post by harry747 »

Ok, I found out what was wrong, so that problem is gone. But now I have a question.

Every time I change something related to glossaries (like add a new entry or add a reference to an existing entry) I have to go into the terminal and say makeindex house to make it all look right (link destinations and page numbers), and that bothers me. Is there a way to automate that in TeXstudio?
