Thanks, sometimes things are so simple...

In the meantime, I had made another (more complicated) solution with the titlesec package, and the "thesis" class:

\documentclass[A4paper, oneside]{thesis}

\usepackage{titlesec}

\begin{document}

\tableofcontents

\chapter{My first chapter}
\section{A ...

Hi,

I need to change the fontsize of some chapter titles (not all of them). When I do this the change is also seen in the ToC, and this is ugly.

Here is the MWE:

\documentclass[A4paper, oneside]{book}
\begin{document}

\tableofcontents

\chapter{My first chapter}
\section{A section}
Some text ...

Works perfect! Here is what I've included in the preamble:


\usepackage{chngcntr}
\counterwithout{figure}{chapter}
\counterwithout{table}{chapter}


However, my list of abbreviations has a table-like format, so my first table was numbered Table 2. So I've reset the counter just after ...

Hi, I have a question for which my web search was unsuccessful but I think it is straightforward for he who knows the answer.

I need to change the numbering of figures and tables so that they are incremental. My figures should be named Figure 1, Figure 2, Figure 3, Figure 4 and not as LaTeX does ...

Here it is, for the beginning :


\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{tikz}

\begin{document}

Figure 1: Structure of the GR gene (NR3C1; OMIM + 138040; NR3C1; 5q31-q32), the potential mRNA transcripts and the binding sites within the CpG island.
Panel A The genomic structure of the GR.
\begin ...

Got it. It was easier than expected. Great package I'll post some code later for the example

Thanks a lot

My last reply still applies.

Yes indeed it seems to be possible with ti k Z. Thanks. I am now reading the manual. However it seems not too straightforward at first glance to get the thing aligned with the text, within a figure caption...

I know I'm asking a lot here, but if somebody efficient in ...

The example I provided did not show the right thing. Can you have another look? Now I edited the link and made it as an image...
Sorry

Thanks for the fast reply

Hello,

I proposed my wife to re-format her PhD thesis in LaTeX, but today she challenged me with this difficult figure legend:

If there is a way to do this I would be really happy to know, as the submission date is very soon. I would be surprised, however... In Word it's made ...

Hi.

Thanks for your example. My document does not show this behavior, apparently my custom class, somewhere, overrides the two-side default.

I found a quick fix :

\setboolean{@twoside}{true}

at the beginning of the document (just before title page) solves the problem.


How beautiful it is ...
