General ⇒ change the name of an appendix chapter in the TOC

[NELLLY]

Hello, I need to change the word "chapter" y "Appendix" in the appendices. By using the code below I get the customization in the appendices. I need also to get to customize the chapters of the appendices in the table of contents by getting for those chapters the word "Appendix" instead of "Chapter". Is there a solution?

Code: Select all

\documentclass{report}

\usepackage[english]{babel}

\usepackage[toc,page]{appendix}
\usepackage{tocloft}

\makeatletter
\@addtoreset{section}{part}
\makeatother
\newlength\mylen
\renewcommand\thepart{\Roman{part}}
\renewcommand\cftpartpresnum{Part~}
\settowidth\mylen{\bfseries\cftpartpresnum\cftpartaftersnum}
\addtolength\cftpartnumwidth{\mylen}
\renewcommand{\cftchapfont}{\bfseries}
\renewcommand{\cftchappagefont}{\bfseries}
\renewcommand{\cftchappresnum}{Chapter }
\renewcommand{\cftchapaftersnum}{}
\renewcommand{\cftchapnumwidth}{6em}



\begin{document}
\tableofcontents


\chapter{..}
\chapter{...}
\begin{appendices}
\renewcommand{\chaptername}{Appendix}
\chapter{Derivation of X}
The contents...
\chapter{Derivation of Y}
\section{A}
\end{appendices}



\end{document}

Personally i am against writing stuff like appendix before entries, even more since you already have an entry stating that the appendices start. Well...

Code: Select all

\documentclass{report}

\usepackage[english]{babel}

\usepackage[toc,page]{appendix}
\usepackage{tocloft}

\makeatletter
\@addtoreset{section}{part}
\makeatother
\newlength\mylen
\renewcommand\thepart{\Roman{part}}
\renewcommand\cftpartpresnum{Part~}
\settowidth\mylen{\bfseries\cftpartpresnum\cftpartaftersnum}
\addtolength\cftpartnumwidth{\mylen}
\renewcommand{\cftchapfont}{\bfseries}
\renewcommand{\cftchappagefont}{\bfseries}
\renewcommand{\cftchappresnum}{Chapter }
\renewcommand{\cftchapaftersnum}{}
\renewcommand{\cftchapnumwidth}{7em}%This overwrites the calculation before



\begin{document}
\tableofcontents

\chapter{..}
\chapter{...}
\begin{appendices}
	\addtocontents{toc}{\protect\renewcommand{\protect\cftchappresnum}{Appendix }}
	\renewcommand{\chaptername}{Appendix}
	\chapter{Derivation of X}
	The contents...
	\chapter{Derivation of Y}
	\section{A}
\end{appendices}
\end{document}

It works perfectly now. Thanks.
