I am typesetting my thesis with ClassicThesis
and am super happy with the narrow content area and the wide margins. However, I need to include some large tables in the appendix and would like them to take up the space reserved for the margin in addition to the actual content space.
What is the best way to set this up? I still want the alternating page layout and need the changes to affect only one section of the appendix.
\documentclass[ twoside,headinclude,footinclude,BCOR=5mm,paper=a4,fontsize=11pt ]{scrreprt}
\usepackage{classicthesis}
\usepackage{longtable}
\usepackage{lscape}
\usepackage{blindtext}
\begin{document}
\chapter{Intro}
\blindtext[7]
\chapter{Appendix}
\blindtext[3]
\begin{landscape}
\begin{longtable}[c]{c|p{0.9\linewidth}}
ID & Descriptors \\ \hline
\endhead
1 & \blindtext \\
2 & \blindtext \\
3 & \blindtext \\
4 & \blindtext \\
5 & \blindtext \\
6 & \blindtext \\
7 & \blindtext \\
8 & \blindtext \\
9 & \blindtext \\
\end{longtable}
\end{landscape}
\end{document}
When looking at it in the original portrait orientation I want the table to extend further to the left on its first and last page, and further to the right on the second page. When looking at it in landscape mode this will mean height to place rows in. This should be achieved while not interfering with the layout of the "Intro" chapter.
