General ⇒ ToC includes only short Form of Headings

[Aleksandra]

Hello!

I created a ToC and found that the short version of chapter and section titles in included, that is \chapter[that one]{and not that one} and \section[that]{and not that}. I really need to change it, but I'm not sure how to do this.

Would changing the value in \setcounter{tocdepth}{1} help?

If you need the full headings as ToC entries, simply drop the optional arguments in brackets.

[…] Would changing the value in \setcounter{tocdepth}{1} help?

No. This would only influence the depth of the heading levels that are listed in the ToC.


Best regards and welcome to the board

Thanks for the welcoming!

Is there no other way to fix it? I need the alternative short version to make the page header look okay. Names of some papers are really long and page format gets screwed up if I don't use the shortcuts. I already dropped the name of a chapter and numbers to give title more space, but this doesn't suffice.

The current version of KOMA-Script offers this feature. It is described from page 85 onward in the English version of the user guide.

Thanks a million! As soon as I find which distributor is suitable for Kile I will try this one out.
