Page Layout ⇒ Multiple pagestyles in one document

[ispacewalker]

When multiple \pagestyle in one document, the page styles become quite strange. How can I make the first work until the second, the 2nd until the 3rd, and so on? Please run the following code to view the effect.

Code: Select all

[Bartman]

In this one-sided document, insert the \clearpage command before changing the page style, so that the changed style will only take effect from the new chapter.

Since the page style of the first page of each chapter is set to plain, the style selected by pagestyle is not set until the second chapter page.

A suggestion:

If I am right with my assumption concerning the first chapter page, it should work even much shorter:

\documentclass{report}
\usepackage{etoolbox}
\newcommand*{\name}{plain}
% If the selected style should also apply to the first chapter page.
\patchcmd{\chapter}{\thispagestyle{plain}}{\pagestyle{\name}}{}{}
\begin{document}
\pagestyle{\name}
\chapter{\name}
Some stuff.
\newpage
{\Huge \name}
\renewcommand*{\name}{headings}
\chapter{\name}
