Nice formatted Definitions

Post by thorpn »

I'm using the \newmdtheoremenv command from the mdframed package for my theorems. Could I get something similar for my definitions ?


thanks

Sure, what is internally called theorem environment could also be used to make a definition environment.

Does Section 5.6 of the mdframed manual not help in this regard?
