Text Formatting ⇒ Adding Appendix to Table of Contents

[ucf_436]

Hi all,
I am trying to add appendices to the table of contents but it recognises it as chapters and hence calls them as chapters in the table of contents.

This is how the code is now in the .clo file.

In the class file under the table of contents, I tried to add a section for appendices asking it to understand the difference between chapter and appendix by using chapapp (this has been defined before). The code I used is

However, this doesn't work either. It changed the heading of all the chapters in the table of contents to APPENDIX.

Any help regarding this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Are you defining your own class? Or using Memoir (seems I remember chapapp in there).

In the Memoir class, you can use

command to turn chapters into appendices.

But without a MWE I don't have much to go on.

[ucf_436]

We do define our own class. I have attached the class file here. There is also a .clo file which for some reason I am not able to attach here. They have defined the appendices as chapters and so when it appears in the table of contents, it calls it a chapter and not appendix. I have attached the sample .tex file in which the appendices have been defined.
Thanks for the help.

I was able to find the class files on the UCF website. However, I'm getting an error when I run it. I just move past it but had a question:

In the ToC, I see "Chapter Chapter 1: W", where Chapter is repeated twice. It looks like it's also being added to the appendix so I see "Chapter Appendix A: F1"

Is this what you are getting? From the class definition, it looks like they are hard-coding the chapter, which is strange. I'm wondering if one of your packages is messing with the class.

[west.logan]

Editing the .cls file and removing the hard-coded "CHAPTER" fixed the problem for me. I'm not sure if that's what you were asking though. This is the section. Just remove "CHAPTER" from it in the .cls file.

Removing the chapter in the cls file and replacing it with appendix changed all the sections of the table of contents to appendix. The cls file is written such that it treates the appendix as a chapter. I would need to add an exception so that it recognizes it as not a chapter but an appendix and hence need to add a section in the code I think. But am not sure what exactly the code is. I tried to copy the chapter code and call it appendix instead bu that didn't change anything.

The 2nd section is what I added. Dint help

[west.logan]

No, what I'm saying is that for me, the chapters (in the TOC) are all appearing as "CHAPTER CHAPTER W" or something like that. Then the Appendix appears as "CHAPTER APPENDIX F". If you remove "CHAPTER" from the code specified in the .cls file, then I just get "CHAPTER W" and "APPENDIX F" in the TOC. I did not replace "chapter" with "appendix" or add any code. Is this what you are seeing?

[ucf_436]

Oh.. I get it now. I dont see that though. The TOC just has chapters for the appendices and the chapter titles. It doesnt have a chapter chapter like yours. If it's the same .cls file I am not sure why there is a difference.

[west.logan]

It might be helpful if you just put everything you've got in a zip file. I had to go find and download three or four files to get it to run and it still runs with errors...

[ucf_436]

I have attached the .clo file as a text file as I wasn't able to attach it with the .clo extension. The initial .tex file I sent had an error so i am attaching it here again. The .clo file also defines the table of contents section and it seems to interfere with the .cls file. Can you rename the attached file to the .clo extension and run our file? Thanks
