Page Layout ⇒ fancyhf and \leftmark resizing

[PK_TeX]

Hi

I'd like to resize the \leftmark title on my doc.

I have:

Code: Select all

\usepackage{fancyhdr} 

	\fancypagestyle{front}{
		\fancyhf{}
		%\fancyfoot[C]{page \thepage}
		\renewcommand{\headrulewidth}{0pt}
		\renewcommand{\footrulewidth}{0pt}
	}

	\fancypagestyle{main}{%
		\renewcommand{\headrulewidth}{0pt}
		\fancyhf{}
		%\fancyhead[CO]{ \fontsize{8pt}{8pt}\selectfont\textit\leftmark} % 
		\fancyhead[CO]{\textit\leftmark} 
		\fancyhead[CE]{\small\textsc{\lefmark}}  
		% pied de page
		\renewcommand{\footrulewidth}{0pt}
		\fancyfoot{} 
		\fancyfoot[RO]{\thepage} 
		\fancyfoot[LE]{\thepage}
	}

	\fancypagestyle{back}{%
		\fancyhf{}
		%\fancyfoot[C]{page \thepage}%
		\renewcommand{\headrulewidth}{0pt}
		\renewcommand{\footrulewidth}{0pt}
	}

It works fine and I want to modify the main part in order that the fancyhead[CO] to be a little bit smaller.

I tried

\fancyhead[CO]{ \fontsize{8pt}{8pt}\selectfont\textit\leftmark}
\fancyhead[CO]{ \small\textit\leftmark} % \huge idem
\fancyhead[CO]{ \smaller[3]\textit\leftmark} % with the package relsize

but it does nothing. I do not understand why I can't change the size.

I use lualatex.

Thanks,

The only mistake in your incomplete example is the typo in \lefmark, which should cause an error message. If I complete your source code snippet to a minimal working example, then I get the result you want. Please try to do the same and post an example that shows the problem.

Thanks for the answer.

Yes, my simple solution works (with an error of copy-paste), but doesn't work in my doc.

I found the error. My code and solution were fine.

But I have adapted the \section to unumbered it, and it is that which caused the problem:

Code: Select all

\newcommand*{\nsection}[1]{%
    % Create the inline heading
    \vspace*{0.5cm}
    \section*{#1}%
    % Set the mark (for headers/footers)
    \markboth{\small{#1}}{}%
    % Make a Table of Contents entry
    \addcontentsline{toc}{section}{#1}
    \vspace*{-0.9cm}
    \begin{figure}[h]
        \centering
        \includesvg{./image.svg}
    \end{figure}
    \vspace*{0.25cm}
}

For adapting the \leftmark function, I need to adapt my \markboth function. With my proposal solutions, it works fine.

Thanks and sorry for the false problem.
