Text Formatting ⇒ [glossaries] Separate glossaries and use of footnotes

[cool]

Hello *,

I am currently stuck, having two separate glossaries: main & acronyms. Acronyms prints footnotes on first use, but not the main glossary. Is there any way to make any other glossary as acronyms to print footnote on first use of the entry? I don't get how to do it.

Many thanks,
Ovanes

Code: Select all

\makeatletter
\renewcommand{\gls@main@displayfirst}[4]{
  #1#4\protect\footnote{#2}
}
\makeatother

You can just do:

Code: Select all

\defglsdisplayfirst[main]{#1#4\footnote{#2}}

and dispense with the \makeatletter \makeatother pair.

With the new version (2.04), you can now specify that the main glossary is also a list of acronyms using the package option acronymlists={main}.
