this is my very first time posting here, so hopefully I supply all necessary information needed to solve my problem.
I am writing my thesis in Latex and need a specific format for my table of contents (see picture1) and I have already tried quite a bit of options found in different threats, but was not able to stitch it together in a way working for me.
My current code creates the following:
My questions would therefore include:
- After "Chapter X" no page number.
- Have the Chapter Name in normal and smaller font while Chapter stays bold& bigger (!but only in the TOC, because both need to stay bold in the actual Chapters.!)
- Reduce the spacing between Chapter and Chapter Name, but still have an increased one between chapters.
I hope you can help me, as I've been not able to solve this on my own for months.
