Text Formatting ⇒ References to unnumbered Sections

[marie2011]

Dear forum members,

I am not sure if I should have posted this message here.

I used the symbol * in some sections because I do not want them to appear in my index. The problem now is that when I use the \ref command I get nothing but a tiny square. I was wondering if you could help me solving this problem.

My code is:

Code: Select all

Attached you will find a picture so that you can see what I mean.

This is standard LaTeX behaviour. \label stores the number of certain counters and \ref provides the value of the thus stored counter according to the definition \the<counter>. In case of sections it's the value of the counter section. Here is an example:

Code: Select all

\documentclass{article}
\renewcommand*\thesection{Section~\Alph{section}}
\begin{document}

\section{Title}\label{sec:title}
See: \ref{sec:title}

\end{document}

But since starred sections have no numbers there is no number to be stored and in consequence nothing to refer to. What would you like to be typeset by \ref if there is no number to be used?

Hi Clemens,

Many thanks for your prompt answer.

Is it possible that if I use \ref the name of the section (in this case "objetivo") appears instead of the number section, since, as you said:

What would you like to be typeset by \ref if there is no number to be used?


Thanks and best regards,

You could use the nameref package:

Code: Select all

\documentclass{scrartcl}
\usepackage{nameref}
\usepackage{hyperref}
\begin{document}

\section*{Title}\label{sec:title}
See: \nameref{sec:title}

\end{document}

Thanks a lot, Clemens, everything works fine now.

Best regards,

Marie
