Re: How to forbid hyphenation in Section headings?

1999-12-07 Thread Syrus Nemat-Nasser

Hi everyone.

I didn't get a response, but I did my own research on comp.text.tex and
will report the results here. According to experienced tex'ers, there are
two packages that should solve my problems: titlesec and secsty. These are
both included in the Debian tetex-extra package. Unfortunately, because of
other ERT that I've already inserted in my thesis, the inclusion of either
one of these packages seems to cause more problems than they are likely to
fix. As a quick and dirty solution, I inserted forced line breaks in the
section headings that span more than one line. This eliminates the two
problems that I cited: hyphenation in headings and headings that violate
the right margin.

Thanks. Syrus.

 headings never have words hyphenated. Also, chapter headings never violate
 the right margin setting. However, section and subsection headings both
 allow hyphenation and, at times, can violate the right margin limit. Can I
 force the behavior that I see for the chapter headings to apply to all
 section headings?
 
 I am using Lyx 1.1.2 on a Debian potato system. The Tetex version is
 1.0.X. My document is very large (150 pages) and split into separate
 included files, but I think I could extract an example long section
 heading if necessary.
