Rename one specific figure to 'Map' rather than Figure and list in list of Figures

As next step, will you have Map 1, Chart 7, Plot 5, Diagram 4? All are figures.

I suggest, convince the supervisor that consistently all are figures (because also the ...

Rename one specific figure to 'Map' rather than Figure and list in list of Figures

Hi guys,

I have a supervisor who is extremely petty about very minor things. So in my thesis, I have a variety of figures. One of these figures is a map of a certain area. My supervisor says that this figure can not be named 'figure 1' (it happens to be the first one in my thesis), but it must be ...

How to reduce the margins in ClassicThesis Template?

Package fullpage shouldn't be used. Package geometry is far better and has much more capabilities to change the page margins as needed.

So this worked, but now the chapter number (and in this case the letter A for Appendix A) has been clipped, probably due to reducing the ...

How to reduce the margins in ClassicThesis Template?

Load and use Package geometry after your classicthesis-config file is input.

If you want to print on both sides of one sheet of paper, like a book, you need alternating margins.

If you want to print on just one side and leave the other empty, so all left hand pages stay empty when your report is ...

I will look more though.

How to reduce the margins in ClassicThesis Template?

Lately, I use the fullpage package, but it doesn't answer your question ( http://distrib-coffee.ipsl.jussieu.fr/pub/mirrors/ctan/macros/latex/contrib/preprint/fullpage.pdf ) :
