I want to center the title TABLE OF CONTENTS. How can I do that? I also want to center all other titles such as LIST OF FIGURES, LIST OF TABLES and LIST OF APPENDICES.

Thanks in advance

You may try this:

Code: Select all

\renewcommand{\printtoctitle}{\centering\Huge\bfseries}

Note that when redefining \printtoctitle you have to set other attributes too (in the example I set \Huge and \bfseries). For more infos take a look at Chapter 9. in memoir documentation.

Hello,

Thank you fo replying, but it did not work. I still have the title aligned to the left. Why?

Regards

Strange. On my system (TeXLive 2009), works fine. Here's your code with the additional line from my previous post to test:

And in attachment is its output. I tested it with pdflatex and xelatex. Can anyone other test it and confirm if it's working?

I just tested the code with that additional line and it's working on my system, too. I have TeXLive 2008.

Yes you are right. I am sorry for this. I tried it on my full document where it did not work. As an independent document, it is just fine. In my original document I use something like this:

Code: Select all

Code, edit and compile here:

1

3
4

It is a long story why I did this. I want to center this chapter title alone, not all chapters titles. How can I do this?

Thanks in advance
