Text Formatting ⇒ Chapter style

[pwiecek]

I would like to have something like that:

Introduction 1
-----------------------

but the number should be bigger then chapter name. The chapter name and number should be in the same line...

I found:

\documentclass{sample}
\makeatletter
\def\thickhrulefill{\leavevmode \leaders \hrule height 1ex \hfill \kern \z@}
\def\@makechapterhead#1{%
\vspace*{10\p@}%
{\parindent \z@
{\raggedleft \reset@font
\fontsize{15ex}{15ex}\selectfont %Problème avec les substitutions...
\bfseries\thechapter\par\nobreak}%
\par\nobreak
\interlinepenalty\@M
{\raggedright \Huge \bfseries #1}%
\par\nobreak
\hrulefill
\par\nobreak
\vskip 100\p@
}}
\def\@makeschapterhead#1{%
\vspace*{10\p@}%
{\parindent \z@
{\raggedleft \reset@font
\fontsize{15ex}{15ex}\selectfont %Problème avec les substitutions...
\bfseries\vphantom{\thechapter}\par\nobreak}%
\par\nobreak
\interlinepenalty\@M
{\raggedright \Huge \bfseries #1}%
\par\nobreak
\hrulefill
\par\nobreak
\vskip 100\p@
}}
\begin{document}
\chapter{Introduction}
\end{document}



It's quite ok, but the number is not at the same line as chapter name...

Please help;)

You may always manually set distances. A quick example using titlesec and graphicx (provides \scalebox command):

Code: Select all

\documentclass{report}

\usepackage{graphicx}

\usepackage[noindentafter]{titlesec}

\titleformat{\chapter}
   {\Huge\bfseries}% global formatting (number and title)
   {}% number and its formatting
   {0pt}% spacing between number and title
   {}% optional (content between number and title)
   [\hrule\vspace{-41.5pt}\filleft\scalebox{2}{\thechapter}]% text/command after title
   
\titlespacing{\chapter}
   {0pt}% left
   {2cm}% before
   {1cm}% after

\begin{document}

\chapter{Introduction}

Some text\ldots

\chapter[A little bit longer chapter title]{A little bit longer\\chapter title}

Some text\ldots

\end{document}

In case of longer chapter titles, you'll have to manually control line breaks and use optional titles for TOC and headers.
