memoir | "Madsen" Chapter Style Issue

Post by niles »

Hi

Please take a look at my MWE:

Code: Select all

\documentclass[a4paper, 11pt]{memoir}

\usepackage[ansinew]{inputenc}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{graphicx}

\chapterstyle{madsen}
\usepackage{lipsum}

\begin{document}
\frontmatter

\tableofcontents*
\mainmatter

\chapter{How to play Uno}

\newpage
\chapter{How to play Uno II}
\lipsum[4-57]
\end{document}
When I compile this and make a PDF-output (either by pdfLaTeX or dvi2pdf), then one thing is bothering me: The vertical line between the chapter-number and the chapter title does not have the same position for chapter 2 as it does for ToC and chapter 1.

Why is that, and is it fixable?

Best,
Niles.

Recommended reading 2024:

LaTeXguide.org • LaTeX-Cookbook.net • TikZ.org

NEW: TikZ book now 40% off at Amazon.com for a short time.

And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p

I can't comprehend the problem. Add the \listfiles command as very first line to your example and check the versions of used files in the log file. Perhaps you need some updates.

Thanks. I checked, and it is all updated. The issue still persists - it is easy to reproduce and check for anyone interested.
