I use `fancyhdr' to make chapter title for my thesis,
\usepackage{fancyhdr}
\usepackage[Lenny]{fncychap}
Any idea of other fancy headings using the same package? I don't want to change 'fancyhdr' as that will amount to me changing a lot in my template. Martin's submission (link below) looks really great...with title 'Chapter 3'. Is it possible to use fancyhdr to do same?
fancyhdr has nothing to do with the chapter headings; it controls the typesetting of page header and footer.
In order to change the chapter headers, a good source of examples is the package titlesec
For example:
\titleformat{\chapter}[display]
{\bfseries\LARGE}
{\filleft\MakeUppercase{\chaptertitlename}\quad\Huge\thechapter}
{4ex}
{\titlerule\vspace{1ex}\filright}
[\vspace{1ex}\titlerule]
(slightly modified from your comment).
fncychapisn't great...but does it also have any repercussion or against standard thesis typesetting? Do you have suggestion to replacefncyhchap?titlesec packageas below, so simple and great!\documentclass[a4paper, 11pt, twoside]{Thesis} %\graphicspath{{Figures/}} %\usepackage[outermarks]{titlesec}\renewcommand{\thechapter}{\arabic{chapter}}\titleformat{\chapter}[display]{\bfseries\LARGE}{\filleft\MakeUppercase{\chaptertitlename} \Huge\thechapter} {4ex}{\titlerule\vspace{.5ex}%\filright}[\vspace{2ex}%\titlerule]\begin{doc}blac blac blac\end{document}
