I am currently working on the layout of my thesis and not completely certain how to implement this feature. There are two things i wish to achieve:
- A dedicated page for each chapter
- Chapter names being visible in TOC
The TOC structure im looking for is:
Chapter 1: Some chapter name
1 Some title
1.1 Something elegant ........................................ 5
Chapter 2: Some differnet chapter name
2 Another title
2.1 Something super elegant .................................. 6
Now for each chapter page im looking for something like following:
Chapter 1
Some chapter name
My starting point is simply a Chapter x heading for each chapter created by using following piece of code:
\usepackage{sectsty}
\chapterfont{\large\sc\centering}
\chaptertitlefont{\centering}
\subsubsectionfont{\centering}
sectsty, but it is relatively trivial with the basic toc mechanism to start a new page for each chapter. just before the\chaptercommand (in the chapter file, if you use\include), insert a command\addtocontents{toc}{\newpage}. – barbara beeton Jun 16 '14 at 16:53sectstyit still wont appear in the TOC. The TOC looks the same as my example. But a new page appears withChapter xand the chapter name. – JavaCake Jun 16 '14 at 17:24Chapter 1..which is1 Some title, this suddenly becomes 2 instead of 1.. – JavaCake Jun 16 '14 at 17:56\part{..}. Sorry for wasting your time. – JavaCake Jun 16 '14 at 18:00\newpagecommand to thetocfile cannot produce the results you are seeing. a compilable minimal example. beginning with\documentclassand ending with\end{document}will be needed to figure out what is happening. – barbara beeton Jun 16 '14 at 18:03
