Cross Referencing in Index

Post by mfiligree »

Hello - I need some help with my index cross referencing. I have it properly formatted, with \index{item!second item|see{third item}} but anything cross referenced (with |see) never appears in the index. My subentries work just fine. Is there a needed counter command for cross referencing depth perhaps? Here are the packages I am running:

Code: Select all

\documentclass[12pt,oneside,usenames,dvipsnames]{book}
\usepackage{amssymb,amsmath}
\usepackage[toc,page]{appendix}
\usepackage{calc}
\usepackage{color}
\usepackage{deluxetable}
\usepackage{epspdfconversion}
\usepackage{fancyhdr}
\usepackage{graphicxsp}
\usepackage{lscape}
\usepackage{makeidx}
\usepackage{multirow}
\usepackage{robustindex}
\usepackage[dotinlabels]{titletoc}
\usepackage[titles]{tocloft}
\usepackage[colorlinks=true,linkcolor=blue]{hyperref}
\usepackage[toc]{glossaries}
I appreciate your help!

Cross Referencing in Index

You also need to index the item you're cross-referencing:

Code: Select all

\documentclass{article}

\usepackage{makeidx}

\makeindex

\begin{document}

Second item\index{item!second item|see{third item}}\index{third item}.

\printindex

\end{document}
