How to remove letters from Appendix? [Appendix A - Appendix]

2011-08-22 Thread ChiPro 
Hi all,

how can I remove the lettering of the Appendix?

Example:

When I start the appendix, the PDF output file displays Appendix A. I would
like it to simply show Appendix, and would like cross-references in the text
to show Appendix.


Thanks!

Use the environment Section* to suppress the A, and type Appendix 
where necessary.

After you 'Start Appendix Here' instead of 'Section' environment use
'Section*' (unnumbered). I guess this should do what you want.

I only realized that with the *-version of the appendix, I can no longer
cross-reference it as Appendix in the text (it gets numbered like a normal
item, eg section). Any alternative solutions?

Yeah, I was gonna respond to this thread and mention that I've had 
problematic side effects when using the star environments. In my 
opinion they're more trouble than they're worth.

You know, since you have only one appendix and you're not really using 
it like standard appendices, it might be easier to build the appendix 
line in a style in the layout or in ERT, use \phantomsection() to 
enable correct crossreferences, and \addtocontents so it gets shown in 
your table of contents. I think you'll have to use a little trial and 
error to get it to work just right, but it seems to me to be the most 
direct route.

Use the environment "Section*" to suppress the "A", and type "Appendix" 
where necessary.
