I have created a symbol-list with the glossaries package and so far everything worked great. Now, I have to write an equation which includes the derivative of one entry. The derivative is shown by a dot over the symbol. I would like to just do something like: dot{gls{...}} but this obviously doesn't account for the indices and prints the dot over the middle.

I can just include the derivative in the glossary, but this has some disadvantages:

• If only the derivative is referenced, the glossary will not include the normal symbol.


• If I have multiple derivatives the glossary gets crowded.


• The derivatives have often no "real" meaning, like a=dot{v}=ddot{x}
  

Unfortunately, I can't just use the prime operator to show the derivatives, because this is already used to show a transformation.

How can I archive a glossary like that?

Here is one of my entries, maybe it helps:

newglossaryentry{form:komplstatorwiderstand}{

    name=ensuremath{uline{Z}_mathrm{S}},

    description={Statorwiderstand},

    sort=ZS, 

    type=symbolslist

}

You can use the extra fields in the glossaries package: user1, user2, user3, and so on. You call them by using glsuseri, glsuserii, glsuseriii and so on (using roman numerals).

example:

documentclass{article}

usepackage{glossaries}



newglossaryentry{ex}{

    name=ensuremath{X_mathrm{S}},

    description={Statorwiderstand},

    sort=ZS, 

    user1 =ensuremath{dot{X}_mathrm{S}}

}

   Testing the normal gls{ex} and now with dot glsuseri{ex}
