MakeIndex, Nomenclature, Glossaries and Acronyms ⇒ Nomenclature stopped working in TeXstudio

[polemicist]

Dear all,

I have am relatively new to LaTeX. I have used now for 4 reports. Somehow, the abbreviation is not working for my documents anymore. I even copied a sample code from the internet but it still is not working.

In TeXstudio, I have gone to options, configure TeXstudio, I have set the Default Glossary Tool to

Code: Select all

makeindex %.nlo -s nomencl.ist -o %.nls -t %.nlg

It still doesn't make the Abbreviation section appear on the paper. Below I have oncluded a sample code, believing that if the code starts to work here, I can transfer it to my report. Any help is grestly appreciated.

\documentclass[a4paper,12pt]{book}
\usepackage{nomencl}
\makenomenclature
\renewcommand{\nomname}{List of Abbreviations}

\begin{document}
\printnomenclature[3cm]
\newpage
Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) \nomenclature{SEM}{Scanning Electron 
Microscopy} is used for microstructural analysis, while
X-ray Diffraction (XRD) \nomenclature{XRD}{X-ray Diffraction} gives the phase 
of the material. 


(XRD) \nomenclature{$XRD$}{X-ray Diffraction}
\end{document}

Just in case this post would be of help to anyone, I forgot to make index (Tools -> Index). After this, the Nomenclature list was made.
