General ⇒ How can I omit "Table of Contents" above the TOC?

[Montag]

Hello,

how can I make "Table of Contents" disappear when producing the TOC via \tableofcontents?

[Stefan Kottwitz]

This depends on the class, since the classes define \tableofcontents. Check the definition in your class for an option or redefine it without printing out that heading. Or use a package such as tocloft or titletoc.

Oh, ok, it is one of the KOMA classes. Still can't find what I must do. :/

[Stefan Kottwitz]

With a current KOMA class you can solve it by

Code: Select all

\deftocheading{toc}{}

That's a feature of tocbasic.

Thank you, that's it.
I can promise I wouldn't have found it in this decade in the scrguide.pdf.

[Stefan Kottwitz]

I did not find in the documentation too. I read tocbasic.sty to find it - after reading a cls file to see that tocbasic is used.

The feature is documented in Chapter 12 of the KOMA Script user guide. This chapter represents a documentation for the »tocbasic« package. The command is explained in Section 12.2 at the bottom of page 317 in the German version of the user guide.

Good to know! I had an outdated copy of the manual here, and the KOMA-Script book is at home while I'm elsewhere.
