header-footernomenclature
Using nomencl I am trying to make a nomenclature at the end of my PhD thesis. But the header of the previous chapter (in this case the appendix) is printed on the second page.
How can I change the header in nomenclature to be NOMENCLATURE instead of the previous chapter?
I don't know if it is relevant but I'm using book and creating another index with makeidx.
If you have the \printnomenclature command after \backmatter, it's simple:
\usepackage{nomencl}
\usepackage{etoolbox}
\patchcmd{\thenomenclature}{\chapter*}{\chapter}{}{}
In this way, the thenomenclature package will issue \chapter{\nomname} and the entry will set the headings and the annotation for the table of contents. Don't add the intoc option to nomencl.
You have to add these to your document:
\cleardoublepage
\renewcommand{\nomname}{List of Symbols} %% may be this is good.
\markboth{\MakeUppercase\nomname}{\MakeUppercase\nomname}
Full code:
\documentclass[oneside,12pt]{book}
\usepackage{makeidx}
\usepackage{nomencl}
\makenomenclature
\begin{document}
\frontmatter
\listoftables
\cleardoublepage
\renewcommand{\nomname}{List of Symbols} %% may be this is good.
\markboth{\MakeUppercase\nomname}{\MakeUppercase\nomname}
\printnomenclature
\mainmatter % book mode only
