Hi,

at some points in my thesis, there's an empty space at the bottom of a page and the following \subsubsection jumps into the next page.

I tried using \nopagebreak[4] without luck.. Is there a way to force latex into not making a page break?

Thanks!

It seems there's probably just not enough space at the end of the page for \subsubsection (including the space before and after such a heading). Try \enlargethispage{\baselineskip} there.

Hello again,

what about the \subsections? how can I make them appear on the previous page?

Same, make space for them in any way
