Text Formatting ⇒ Short appendix question

[Nardo]

Hi guys,

I have a short question about the appendix. My code is the following:

Code: Select all

\newpage
\addcontentsline{toc}{section}{Appendix}
\appendix
\section*{Appendix}
\subsection{Graph 1}

Now the content gives my the followiwing expression .1 Graph 1. How can I change this to A.1 or A1 Graph 1?


Thank you!!

Without knowing what document class you're using and other settings, it's not entirely clear what the best way to handle this would be, but you could try something like:

Code: Select all

\newpage
\addcontentsline{toc}{section}{Appendix}
\appendix
\section*{Appendix}
\renewcommand{\thesubsection}{A.\arabic{subsection}}
\subsection{Graph 1}

Hi,

my setting is like this:

Code: Select all

\documentclass[12pt]{article}
%\usepackage[ngerman]{babel}
%\usepackage{a4wide}
\usepackage{setspace}
\usepackage{geometry}
\geometry{a4paper, top=25mm, left=25mm, right=25mm, bottom=25mm}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{tabularx}
\usepackage{float}
\usepackage{lscape}
\usepackage{color}
\newcommand{\WichtigFarbe}{\color{blue}}%
\newcommand{\magenta}{\color{magenta}}%
\newcommand{\TextFarbe}{\color{black}}%
\definecolor{darkblue}{rgb}{0,0,0.5}
\definecolor{darkred}{rgb}{0.5,0,0}
\usepackage[colorlinks=true, pdfstartview=FitV, linkcolor=darkred,
            citecolor=darkblue, urlcolor=red]{hyperref}
\usepackage{appendix}
\usepackage[round]{natbib}
%\usepackage{chicago}
%\usepackage{harvard}
\usepackage[hang,small,bf]{caption}
\usepackage{amsmath, amssymb}
\usepackage[ansinew]{inputenc}
\usepackage{longtable}
\usepackage[hang,small,bf]{caption}
\usepackage{url}
\usepackage{booktabs}
\newcommand{\ra}[1]{\renewcommand{\arraystretch}{#1}}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
%\usepackage{setspace} %\onehalfspacing
%\usepackage{vmargin}
\usepackage{fancyhdr}
\usepackage{threeparttable}


\begin{document}

\pagenumbering{Roman}
\begin{titlepage}
\vspace*{-2cm} \vspace{-1cm}

[frabjous]

Really? Take me halfway through the title page and leave me there? I assume at least that you have and \end{titlepage} and perhaps a \pagenumbering{arabic} after that...?

Anyway, I think my suggestion above should be fine. If not, what's wrong? Please provide an actual minimal working example.

Hi frabjous,

it worked.
Thank you very much for the help!!

Now that the problem is solved, please be so kind and mark the topic (not the last post) accordingly as clearly written in the Board Rules (to be read before posting). Please keep that in mind for the future so that further reminders will not be necessary.
