Hi there,
in my glossary or list of abbreviation I have two similar entries with different meanings, e.g. AAA for Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm and AAA for Amino Acid Analysis. When I add a glossary link to "AAA", one of them gets automatically linked, I have no choice there. Probably it's the first in the list.
Is there a possibility to distinguish them and link the glossary link deliberately?
Thanks
Heike

Re: Two similar entries in Glossary
There is no built in functionality for handling multiple terms like this that I know of.
Your options are to include both definitions in the same entry for AAA (separated with text such as "or AAA can also mean...", or try and work around it manually as follows:
1. Make it so AAA does not generate a glossary popup (e.g. style with the mc-disable-glossary-terms property set to True)
2. Add the 2 definitions of AAA to their own topics.
3. Create topic popups to those topics as required.
You'd need to style everything appropriately to mimic normal glossary popups.
Hopefully that gives you something to go on
Cheers
