General ⇒ Numbering Bibliography

[renno]

Hi all,

I am preparing my CV using "moderncv" package. In the package class file, the numbering of the bibliography is defined as follows:

Code: Select all

\newcommand*{\bibliographyitemlabel}{\@biblabel{\arabic{enumiv}}}

which produces "[1]" numbering. I want to have "1." number, so what is the appropriate change. I could not fined anything on the web.

Any help is appreciated...

Thanks,

Hi renno,

this redefinition could help:

Code: Select all

\renewcommand*\bibliographyitemlabel{\arabic{enumiv}.}

Alternatively try

Code: Select all

\makeatletter
\renewcommand*\@biblabel[1]{#1.}
\makeatother

Hi Stefan,

This

Code: Select all

\renewcommand*\bibliographyitemlabel{\arabic{enumiv}.}

produced "[1.]", however,

Code: Select all

\makeatletter
\renewcommand*\@biblabel[1]{#1.}
\makeatother

worked just fine and produced "1.". By the way, what is the difference between \renewcommand{}... and \renewcommand*...

Thanks Stefan for all your help,

\renewcommand* creates a short command. The parameter of such commands must not contain paragraph breaks, as result error messages may give a more precise position, that's why I got used to it and prefer this starred version if possible.
