Mostly backmatter in ClasicThesis

Post by jan_w »

I have writing a thesis some difficulties in having it my way. I hope someone can help me out with this wonderful programming.

1
In the backmatter regarding Contents I am having trouble with making:
‘Contents’ - into ‘Indhold’ (Danish)
‘List of figures’ - into ‘Liste over figurer’ as well as the underlying - into Figur 1, Figur 2 …
‘List of tables - into ‘Liste iver tabeller’ as well as the underlying - into Tabel 1, Tabel 2 …
‘Acronyms’ in the page heading - into ‘Forkortelser’
2
Is it possible to change the naming of ‘Part 1’, ‘Part 2’ etc. - into ‘Del 1’, ‘Del 2’ …
3
In the backmatter regarding Bibliography is it possible to change (cit. on p. …) - into (cit. på s. …)

Best
Jan

You have to pass option danish to babel.
The smart way: Calm down and take a deep breath, read posts and provided links attentively, try to understand and ask if necessary.

Such as

\usepackage[danish]{babel}

or

\PassOptionsToPackage{danish}{babel}

Open ClassicThesis.tex and check the document class options:

\documentclass[twoside,openright,titlepage,...%
ngerman,american%
]{scrreprt}


Remove ngerman, american, or english, and place danish here.

Look if you find \selectlanguage{..} in the same file. Remove it, or change it to \selectlanguage{danish}.

In ClassicThesis-config.tex do the same where you find

\PassOptionsToPackage{francais,american}{babel}

Change that to

\PassOptionsToPackage{danish}{babel}

Sorry

I saw the mistake.
I should add \addto\extrasdanish{% and then it works.
