Glossaries - Acronyms in ignored glossary with short-long style

Question

I've noticed that the glossaries package with an acronym in an ignored glossary does not print the long form on first use if the acronym style short-long is used. With long-short, it works as expected.

MWE:

\documentclass{article}

\usepackage[colorlinks]{hyperref}
\usepackage{glossaries}

\newignoredglossary{common}

\makeglossaries

\setacronymstyle{short-long}

\newacronym{sample}{SAMPLE}{Some Long Form}

\newacronym[type=common]{commonex}{COMMON}{Another Long Form}

\begin{document}

First Use: \gls{sample} -- \gls{commonex}.

Second Use: \gls{sample} -- \gls{commonex}.

\printglossaries

\end{document}

Result:

I've tested this with glossaries v4.21 & v4.40. Both show that behavior. Is this intended and I'm doing it wrong or is it a bug?

Answer 1

You need to identify the ignored glossary as an acronym list using the acronymlists package option or \DeclareAcronymList (described in section 2.5 of the glossaries user manual):

\documentclass{article}

\usepackage[colorlinks]{hyperref}
\usepackage[acronymlists={main,common}]{glossaries}

\newignoredglossary{common}

\makeglossaries

\setacronymstyle{short-long}

\newacronym{sample}{SAMPLE}{Some Long Form}

\newacronym[type=common]{commonex}{COMMON}{Another Long Form}

\begin{document}

First Use: \gls{sample} -- \gls{commonex}.

Second Use: \gls{sample} -- \gls{commonex}.

\printglossaries

\end{document}
