The nomenclature entries is left align without indent by default:
\printnomenclature[2.5 cm]
See e.g.
I want to make these symbols indent
from left margin for 1 ex
or 1 em
. But I have just lost in the package manual nomenclature
.
So how can I redefine the indent
value?
nomgroup
is redefined as:
\usepackage[intoc]{nomencl}
\makenomenclature
\renewcommand\nomgroup[1]{%
\ifthenelse{\equal{#1}{A}}{%
\item[\textbf{Acronyms}] }{% A - Acronyms
\ifthenelse{\equal{#1}{R}}{%
\item[\textbf{Roman Symbols}]}{% R - Roman
\ifthenelse{\equal{#1}{G}}{%
\item[\textbf{Greek Symbols }]}{% G - Greek
\ifthenelse{\equal{#1}{S}}{%
\item[\textbf{Superscripts }]}{{% S - Superscripts
\ifthenelse{\equal{#1}{U}}{%
\item[\textbf{Subscripts }]}{{% U - Subscripts
\ifthenelse{\equal{#1}{X}}{%
\item[\textbf{Other Symbols }]}% X - Other Symbols
{{}}}}}}}}}}
Examples of nomenclature input:
\nomenclature[rV]{$V$ }{Fluid control volume}
\nomenclature[ruf]{$\bm{u}_f$ }{Fluid velocity}
\nomenclature[gepsilonf]{$\epsilon_f$ }{Fluid porosity}
\nomenclature[rfb]{$\bm{f}_b$ }{Body force per unit volume}
\nomenclature[gepsilonf]{$\epsilon_f$ }{Fluid porosity}
\nomenclature[gsigma]{$\bm{\sigma} $ }{Cauchy stress tensor}

Patch
\thenomenclature
to do also\itemindent 1em
:Since your group labels are typeset with
\item
, then you have also to change them so they skip back by the current\itemindent
:You'll probably have less problem in maintaining the code above if you say
