Document Classes ⇒ Remove 'Chapter 1...N' in report-class

[demon]

Hi guys,

I switched from scrreprt (KOMA) to the normal report class because I didn't like the formatting. Now, there's a 'Chapter 1...N' heading before each chapter. How can I remove that? It's a bit disproportionate for a thesis.

Thanks!

It's much easier to stick with scrreprt because the KOMA classes are much more flexible. What exactly do you want to change? For example, if you want serif fonts for headings like the standard classes, it's as easy as

Code: Select all

\addtokomafont{disposition}{\rmfamily}

Biggest problem with KOMA is the heading enumeration. There's a period after the last number, which is formally not allowed. Like 1. Heading, 1.1. Heading. How can I remove that?

First of all read the very good manual.

Code: Select all

\documentclass[numbers=noenddot]{scrreprt}

Note that this is the way this option is given in KOMA Script 3. The english manual isn't yet up to date. The older Version 2 had different options.

Code: Select all

\documentclass[pointlessnumbers]{scrreprt}

Check which version you have installed by inserting a \listfiles command as very first line in your source code. The used packages are listed in the log file between *File List* and ***********.

That was easy. Thanks a lot!

The numbers option should be documented by now, at least it is documented in my version of scrguien, and that isn't even the newest one.

This should not be necessary. Using pointlessnumbers in combination with version 3 produces a warning message that tells exactly what to do:

Code: Select all

Class scrreprt Warning: You've used obsolete option `pointlessnumbers'. Usage of this option indicates an old document and changes compatibility level using `numbers=noenddot,version=first'. If you don't want this, you should simply replace usage of option `pointlessnumbers' by `numbers=noenddot'.

I can only refer to statements of the author and don't know in detail which parts of the manual have been updated until now.

You are telling me nothing new. This was meant to show what to do if the key numbers=noenddot wouldn't have been accepted by the document class.
