Text Formatting ⇒ Page Numbering on Chapter Pages

[lnsam22]

Hi LatexF,

I'm using the 'book' project type and have used the 'myheadings' command to put the numbering on the upper right side of the page. 'book' seems to have a default whereby the numbering remains at the bottom middle for pages where each chapter begins. does anyone know how to force this to not be so?

lnsamm22 thanks in advance

A very often discussed issue (about a thousand times). Use a package like fancyhdr or titlesec to redefine the »plain« page style. But this will supersede your »myheadings« page style. The Forum Search for sure yields appropriate solutions.

The chapter macro defined by the book class includes \thispagestyle{plain}. You could redefine the plain style, but if you load titlesec you can use \assignpagestyle{\chapter}{whatever} to make it use something else.
