Page Layout ⇒ Distance between Numbering and Section Title

[dlopes7]

Hey guys.

How do I change my Section layout like shown?

section.jpg (13.3 KiB) Viewed 2007 times

Edit - If the image is no longer available, I wanted to increase the distance between the section number and the section label and use underline only on the section label, not the number. from "1.1◊Introduction" to "1.1‹‹‹‹◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊Introduction" (Where "◊" is a space unit)

The Chapter Title is fine but I can't change the distance between "1.1" and "Motivação", besides I would like to make "Motivação" underlined but not "1.1"

I am using the following code now in my class:

Code: Select all

\renewcommand{\section}{%
  \suppressfloats[t]%
  \@startsection{section}{1}{0mm}{2\baselsinpe}{2\baselsinpe}
     {\normalfont\normalsize\underline}}

But I get the result shown on the left on the image.
I searched on the forums but didn't find the answer.

Thanks.

Use the titlesec package. Examples can be found in the manual.

Thank you very much.

It works like a charm.

\titleformat{\section}{}{\thesection}{5em}{\underline}
