Is there an option to suppress citations on first usage of \acs? #185

Closed obreitwi closed 3 years ago

obreitwi commented 3 years ago

Currently, if I have an acronym defined with a cite= entry and I expand it using \acs, the citation will be appended.

This looks a bit weird for nested acronyms in which the long form depends on the short form of another acronym.

Is there any way to prevent appending the citation other than \acuse-ing the citation beforehand and resetting it afterwards?

Thank you!

Can you make an example illustrating your problem? Then I might be able to give a proper answer.

While making an example (and thereby re-reading the manual yet again), I discovered my error: I was using the unstarred version of \acs which rightfully inserts the citation; switching to \acs* when using nested citations fixed the error.

Not that it matters now, but I uploaded what I was trying to do here which produces this result.

I am very sorry for the noise, thank you for acro!
