[Reza]

Hi,

how can I centre \part headings in my table of contents?

Hi Reza,

welcome to the board!

It depends on the document class you are using. Which one is it?

Hi Stefan,
Thank you for your reply. Much appreciated.

I am using \documentclass[12pt,a4paper]{report}

Hi Reza,

here's a quick solution. It redefines the original part TOC entry, uses \hspace*{\fill} on the left and on the right of the heading, to get it centered.

Code: Select all

\documentclass[12pt,a4paper]{report}
\makeatletter
\renewcommand*\l@part[2]{%
  \ifnum \c@tocdepth >-2\relax
    \addpenalty{-\@highpenalty}%
    \addvspace{2.25em \@plus\p@}%
    \setlength\@tempdima{3em}%
    \begingroup
      \parindent \z@ \rightskip \@pnumwidth
      \parfillskip -\@pnumwidth
      {\leavevmode
       \hspace*{\fill}\centering\large\bfseries #1\hspace*{\fill}\llap{#2}}\par
       \nobreak
         \global\@nobreaktrue
         \everypar{\global\@nobreakfalse\everypar{}}%
    \endgroup
  \fi}
\makeatother
\begin{document}
\tableofcontents
\part{One}
\chapter{First chapter}
\end{document}
