How to make cleveref cross-references match a modified equation label style?












4















I know that eqref exactly matches the style of the reference to the style of the equation label. However, I prefer to use cref from the cleveref package because (1) it allows me to place the word Equation before the number and because (2) it allows me type cref{eq1,eq2} quite comfortably. Further, following this question, I'm redefining the style of the equation number delimiters. Unluckily, such a change is not captured by the cleveref package.



Here goes a MWE:



documentclass{article}
usepackage{amsmath}
usepackage[capitalise,noabbrev,]{cleveref}

makeatletter
deftagform@#1{maketag@@@{[ignorespaces#1unskip@@italiccorr]}}
makeatother

begin{document}
cref{eq1} is fancy
begin{equation}label{eq1}
a = b
end{equation}
end{document}


This produces:



enter image description here



Then, my question is: how can I get the round parentheses to become square brackets?



Thank you all for your time.

    See the mathtools package for its newtagform macro as well in order to simplify such styles of equation tags

    Do you mean that mathtools provides easier ways to do what I'm doing?

    Regarding the style of tags mathtools is helping you definitely, but I think the cref issue still persists, however. mathtools loads amsmath (and extends it) so you will be able to use everything you already applied from amsmath

In my point of view the easiest (though not most elegant, perhaps) way is to change creflabelformat for the equation counter as well, applying the tagform@ macro explicitly for this.



creflabelformat{equation}{#2tagform@{#1}#3}


The #2 and #3 are reserved for hyperref targets.



Here's the full code.



documentclass{article}
usepackage{amsmath}

usepackage[capitalise,noabbrev,]{cleveref}


makeatletter
deftagform@#1{maketag@@@{[ignorespaces#1unskip@@italiccorr]}}

creflabelformat{equation}{#2tagform@{#1}#3}

makeatother





begin{document}
cref{eq1} is fancy
begin{equation}label{eq1}
a = b
end{equation}
end{document}

    The following solution uses the newtagform and usetagform macros of the mathtools package and the creflabelformat macro of the cleveref package to achieve your formatting objective.



    documentclass{article}

    usepackage{mathtools} % for "newtagform" macro
    newtagform{brackets}{[}{]}
    usetagform{brackets} % employ square brackets as delimiters around eq. numbers

    usepackage[capitalise,noabbrev]{cleveref}
    creflabelformat{equation}{#2{upshape[#1]}#3}

    begin{document}
    cref{eq1} is fancy.
    begin{equation}label{eq1}
    a = b
    end{equation}
    end{document}

      I wonder whether the second occurrence of #2 should instead be #3 (viz., in creflabelformat{equation}{#2{upshape[#1]}#2})? From the cleveref documentation, §8.1.2: The <format> argument “should contain the three arguments #1, #2 and #3, the first being the formatted version of the label counter, the others determining the beginning and end of the portion that becomes a hyperlink when the hyperref package is loaded…. #2 and #3 must appear in that order."

            I wonder whether the second occurrence of #2 should instead be #3 (viz., in creflabelformat{equation}{#2{upshape[#1]}#2})? From the cleveref documentation, §8.1.2: The <format> argument “should contain the three arguments #1, #2 and #3, the first being the formatted version of the label counter, the others determining the beginning and end of the portion that becomes a hyperlink when the hyperref package is loaded…. #2 and #3 must appear in that order."
