All of my chapter headings and section headings are bolded and larger text than the rest of the document. I need these to be the same font size and unbolded. If I highlight the text and right click and go to text style I can unbold the chapter title and section title as well as decrease the font size but the section number and the chapter number simply remain the same. Is this something defined in the LaTeX class file or something that can be changed in LyX and how would I go about it?
Yes, this is defined in the class. If you look at your class file, you'll probably find defintions of \chapter, \section etc. where the font weight and size are set. Sorry, I cannot look myself now. Jürgen I think I’ve located the section where it’s defined, just need to mess with it some and learn some LaTeX syntax to change it. One other question: I have a section in my appendix that needs to be single spaced instead of double. If I highlight the text and go to paragraph settings I see the line spacing options. I try to set that section to single spaced but then get compile errors: ! LaTeX Error: Command \singlespace already defined. ! LaTeX Error: Command \singlespace already defined. I’m thinking maybe something in the class file is preventing single space from happening. Am I on the right track? Is there simple fix for this and am I even doing it right? -Steve
