General ⇒ Renumbering chapters

[jgaspard]

Hi all (and sorry if this problem already emerged in here) !

Here's my "problem":

- I'd like to number the "Deuxième partie" chapters from 1 to 3 (from "Méthodologie" to "Discussion").
- I don't want the "Part" pages to have a page number.

How could I do that? Thanks a lot!

Here is my .tex:

\documentclass[10pt,a4paper]{report}
\usepackage[francais]{babel}
\usepackage[applemac]{inputenc}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}

\begin{document}

\pagestyle{plain}

\tableofcontents

\chapter*{Introduction}
\addcontentsline{toc}{part}{Introduction}

\part*{Première partie}
\addcontentsline{toc}{part}{I. Première partie}

\chapter{Union européenne et médias}

\chapter{Politique européenne}

\part*{Deuxième partie}
\addcontentsline{toc}{part}{II. Deuxième partie}

\chapter{Méthodologie}

\chapter{Résultats}

\chapter{Discussion}

\chapter*{Conclusion}
\addcontentsline{toc}{part}{Conclusion}

\end{document}

Hello,
for the first problem you can use the chngcntr package:

Code: Select all

\usepackage{chngcntr}
\counterwithin{chapter}{part}

Hi,

for the second problem you can redefine the \part command as implemented in report.cls. To do so, add this in the preamble:

Code: Select all

%redefining \part to use empty as pagestyle
\makeatletter
\renewcommand\part{%
  \if@openright
    \cleardoublepage
  \else
    \clearpage
  \fi
  \thispagestyle{empty}%default: plain
  \if@twocolumn
    \onecolumn
    \@tempswatrue
  \else
    \@tempswafalse
  \fi
  \null\vfil
  \secdef\@part\@spart}
\makeatother

As an alternate solution to the first problem, you can reset manually the chapter counter. You can add

Code: Select all

\setcounter{chapter}{0}

just before

Code: Select all

\part*{Deuxième partie}
