Text Formatting ⇒ Changing Appendix Title Font

[ChrisDanger]

Hi,

I just need to change the font of the text "APPENDIX" on the appendix title page. I managed to change the font of the \part environment thanks to information on this site, and I need to do the same kind of thing for the appendix. See here:

Code: Select all

\documentclass{thesis}

\usepackage{appendix}

\makeatletter
\def\@part[#1]#2{
    \ifnum \c@secnumdepth >\m@ne
      \refstepcounter{part}
      \addcontentsline{toc}{part}{Part \thepart\hspace{0.25em} -- \hspace{0.25em}#1}
    \else
      \addcontentsline{toc}{part}{Part #1}
    \fi
    {\parindent \z@
     \interlinepenalty \@M
     \normalfont
     \ifnum \c@secnumdepth >\m@ne
       \huge\bfseries\hfil\partname~\thepart\hfil   
       \par\nobreak\vspace{0.5\baselineskip}
     \fi
     \Huge \bfseries \centering #2
     \markboth{}{}\par}
    \nobreak
    \vskip 3ex
    \@afterheading}
\makeatother

\begin{document}
	\part{The first part}
	\appendix
\end{document}

I hope somebody can help. The code above to change \part is a bit above my capacity to reproduce for the appendix environment, if it does need to be done this way.

Thanks for your time,
Chris

It additionally requires the modification of the corresponding macro for the starred version of the \part command. This is used by the \appendix switch.

Code: Select all

\documentclass{thesis}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{appendix}

\makeatletter
\def\@part[#1]#2{
    \ifnum \c@secnumdepth >\m@ne
      \refstepcounter{part}
      \addcontentsline{toc}{part}{Part \thepart\hspace{0.25em} -- \hspace{0.25em}#1}
    \else
      \addcontentsline{toc}{part}{Part #1}
    \fi
    {\parindent \z@
     \interlinepenalty \@M
     \normalfont
     \ifnum \c@secnumdepth >\m@ne
       \huge\bfseries\hfil\partname~\thepart\hfil   
       \par\nobreak\vspace{0.5\baselineskip}
     \fi
     \Huge \bfseries \centering #2
     \markboth{}{}\par}
    \nobreak
    \vskip 3ex
    \@afterheading}

\def\@spart#1{%
    {\if@center
      \centering
    \else
      \raggedright
    \fi
      \reset@font\p@font
    \if@upper
      \huge\bfseries\expandafter{#1}
    \else  #1%
      \fi\par}
    \@endpart}
\makeatother

\begin{document}
   \part{The first part}
   \appendix
\end{document}
