Questions about Bjornstrup

Question

I use \documentclass{scrbook} with \usepackage[Bjornstrup]{fncychap}.

How can I style the partpage like the chapterpage in the Bjornstrup-style?

Plus this I want to change the grey colour of the box from Bjornstrup in another one. How is this possible?

Answer 1

Here's one possible solution: I redefined \partformat and the internal command \@part (from scrbook.cls) to imitate the Bjornstrup style for chapters; I also redefined \DOCH, \DOTI and \DOTIS as defined by Bjornstrup to allow a variable color. You can now control the background color for parts and chapters simply redefining (through \colorlet) the colors partbgcolor, and chapbgcolor; the color for the numbers used can similarly be changed using partnumcolor and chapnumcolor:

\documentclass{scrbook}
\usepackage[Bjornstrup]{fncychap}
\usepackage{xcolor}

\colorlet{partbgcolor}{gray!30}% shaded background color for parts
\colorlet{partnumcolor}{gray}% color for numbers in parts
\colorlet{chapbgcolor}{gray!30}% shaded background color for chapters
\colorlet{chapnumcolor}{gray}% color for numbers in chapters

\renewcommand*\partformat{%
  \fontsize{76}{80}\usefont{T1}{pzc}{m}{n}\selectfont%
  \hfill\textcolor{partnumcolor}{\thepart}}

\makeatletter
\renewcommand*{\@part}{}
\def\@part[#1]#2{%
  \ifnum \c@secnumdepth >-2\relax
    \refstepcounter{part}%
    \@maybeautodot\thepart%
    \addparttocentry{\thepart}{#1}%
  \else
    \addparttocentry{}{#1}%
  \fi

      \ifnum \c@secnumdepth >-2\relax
        \vskip-25pt
        \size@partnumber{\partformat}%
      \fi      %
      \vskip\baselineskip
      \hspace*{\dimexpr\myhi+10pt\relax}%
      \parbox{\dimexpr\linewidth-2\myhi-20pt\relax}{\raggedleft\LARGE#2\strut}%
      \hspace*{\myhi}\par\medskip%
    \end{minipage}%
      }%
    }%
    \partmark{#1}\par
  \endgroup
  \@endpart
}

\renewcommand\DOCH{%
  \settowidth{\py}{\CNoV\thechapter}
  \addtolength{\py}{-10pt}
  \fboxsep=0pt%
  \colorbox{chapbgcolor}{\rule{0pt}{40pt}\parbox[b]{\textwidth}{\hfill}}%
  \kern-\py\raise20pt%
  \hbox{\color{chapnumcolor}\CNoV\thechapter}\\%

\renewcommand\DOTI[1]{%
  \nointerlineskip\raggedright%
  \fboxsep=\myhi%
  \vskip-1ex%
  \colorbox{chapbgcolor}{\parbox[t]{\mylen}{\CTV\FmTi{#1}}}\par\nobreak%
  \vskip 40pt%
}

\renewcommand\DOTIS[1]{%
  \fboxsep=0pt
  \colorbox{chapbgcolor}{\rule{0pt}{40pt}\parbox[b]{\textwidth}{\hfill}}\\%
  \nointerlineskip\raggedright%
  \fboxsep=\myhi%
  \colorbox{chapbgcolor}{\parbox[t]{\mylen}{\CTV\FmTi{#1}}}\par\nobreak%
  \vskip 40pt%

\begin{document}

\part{Test Part}
\chapter{Test Chapter}

\end{document}

Here's how parts will now look like:

And using

\colorlet{partbgcolor}{LightSkyBlue}% shaded background color for parts
\colorlet{partnumcolor}{NavyBlue}% color for numbers in parts

you will get:
