I am trying to figure out how to get it so the chapter name and number is
only on the left even pages and the section name and number is on the
right side of the odd pages.
\fancyhead[RO]{\slshape \thesection}
\fancyhead[RE]{}
\fancyhead[LE]{\slshape \thechapter}
\fancyhead[LO]{}
The above works (in my preamble) to show numbers, but I don't have the
actual chapter name.
When I try to define a \chaptermarker, then both become blank. I tried
several ideas; here is one I tried:
\renewcommand{\chaptermark}[1]{%
\markboth{\chaptername
\ \thechapter.\ #1{}}
I am trying to figure this out from reading fancyhdr.dvi (Dec. 16, 2002)
document.
For example, I want on left side of even page:
Chapter 2. LyX Setup and Supporting Applications
And I want on the right side of odd page:
Section 2.3 Setting up the X Keyboard
Any assistance would be appreciated.
