separate-uncertainty different behaviour with qtylist and qty.

rafaelpap opened this issue · 4 comments

Using separate-uncertainty with \SIlist and \SI in version 2 put every number inside brackets.
In version 3 using \qty gives the same result than version 2 \SI but \qtylist does not use brackets.
qtylist.pdf

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{siunitx}
\begin{document}
\qty[separate-uncertainty]{5.4(3)}{\kilo\joule\per\mol} and
\qty[separate-uncertainty]{7.8(2)}{\kilo\joule\per\mol}.

\qtylist[separate-uncertainty]{5.4(3);7.8(2)}{\kilo\joule\per\mol}.
\end{document}

Am I doing something wrong?

BTW, in the description of bracket-ambiguous-numbers there is a typo: seperate-uncertainty-units instead of separate-...

Typo sorted in d6340f9 - I'll look at the main issue

I see where this is coming from - working out the 'best' solution is tricky!

No hurry on my part. Thanks,

I thought this would be relatively easy, but looking in detail there are some harder aspects: I will need a little while to fix it (this whole area is super-tricky).
