General ⇒ Overlapping Index

[peterbotellin]

Hello. I have already finished my PhD report but I have a problem that i'm not able to solve. I'm desperate.

When I use \tableofcontents, the numbers of the index overlap the title. I have tried

\renewcommand\l@chapter{\@dottedtocline{1}{1em}{4em}}

As a result the problem desapears but I get another one: a dotted line appear next to the chapter name and moreover, there is no blank line between the last subsection and the following chapter.

Any ideas?

Do you mean the index (generated by makeindex for example) or the table of contents (generated by \tableofcontents)?

Either way, a minimal working example would be very helpful here. I doubt it would be possible to help otherwise.
