20201105 We can adjust the chapter or section numbers of a document:
\addtocounter{chapter}{10} % Add 10 to the current chapter counter. |
When we get more than 100 chapters then the layout of the contents pages needs some tuning as the three digit chapter numbers begin overlapping the chapter titles. The []tocloft package supports such fine tuning. The following are a good set of sizes for books with 100 or more chapters.
\usepackage{tocloft} \renewcommand\cftchapnumwidth{2em} % Space for the chapter numbers. \renewcommand\cftsecindent{2em} % Indent for the section entry. \renewcommand\cftsecnumwidth{3.2em} % Space for the section numbers. \renewcommand\cftsubsecindent{5.2em} % Indent for subsection. \renewcommand\cftsubsecnumwidth{4em} % Space for subsection numbers. |
