Reduce line spacing in nomenclature












4














I am creating a nomenclature and would like to reduce line spacing. If I use the approach found online inserting the setlength{nomitemstep}{-parsep} command, all line skips are removed including the ones before and after the sub-section headings of the nomenclature.
Is there a way of reducing the line space only for the individual items, however not for the headers?



Attached is an example code and a snapshot of the output:



documentclass[authoryear, preprint]{elsarticle} 



usepackage{nomencl}

makenomenclature

renewcommand{nomgroup}[1]{%

    ifthenelse{equal{#1}{A}}{item[textbf{Greek Symbols}]}{%

    ifthenelse{equal{#1}{B}}{item[textbf{Other Variables}]}{}}} 

setlength{nomitemsep}{-parsep}

RequirePackage{ifthen}



begin{document}

This is my text document.

nomenclature[a]{$sigma$}{Variable explanation}

nomenclature[a]{$alpha$}{Variable explanation}

nomenclature[a]{$beta$}{Variable explanation}

nomenclature[b]{$A$}{Variable explanation}

nomenclature[b]{$B$}{Variable explanation}

nomenclature[b]{$C$}{Variable explanation}

nomenclature[b]{$D$}{Variable explanation}

printnomenclature[0.9in]

end{document}


Thanks a lot for any hints!

Here's a small bypass solution: Restore the noitemsep value temporarily in a nomgroup and use the newer value afterwards.

usepackage{ifthen}



usepackage{nomencl}

usepackage{xpatch}







newlength{nomitemorigsep}

setlength{nomitemorigsep}{nomitemsep}

setlength{nomitemsep}{-parsep}





makenomenclature

renewcommand{nomgroup}[1]{%

  itemsepnomitemorigsep%

  ifthenelse{%

    equal{#1}{A}%

  }{%

  item[textbf{Greek Symbols}]%



  }{%

    ifthenelse{equal{#1}{B}}{%

    item[textbf{Other Variables}]%



    }{}%

  }%

  itemsepnomitemsep% Restore spacing

}

Accessing regular linux commands in Huawei's Dopra Linux
