Page Layout ⇒ Duplicate page numbers with memoir

[goltoof]

Having trouble nailing down a certain style I like. It's obvious I'm using way more styles than I should to get the desired effect. Main thing I'm after is the fancy chapterstyle with left/right page numbering the same on all pages including chapter pages.

Code: Select all

\documentclass[11pt,letter,oneside]{memoir}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[english]{babel}
\usepackage{blindtext}
\usepackage{fancyhdr}
\OnehalfSpacing
 \chapterstyle{verville}
 \pagestyle{plain}
 \makepagestyle{plain}
% \makeevenhead{plain}{}{}{}
% \makeoddhead{plain}{}{}{}
 \makeevenfoot{plain}{\thepage}{}{}
 \makeoddfoot{plain}{}{}{\thepage}
 \pagestyle{fancy}
 \fancyfoot[RO, LE]{\thepage}
\begin{document}
\blinddocument
\end{document}

I think it is more simple than you think.

Code: Select all

\documentclass[11pt,
%letter% JB: unknown
%,oneside%JB: Apparently, you don't want this?
]{memoir}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[english]{babel}
\usepackage{blindtext}
\usepackage{showframe}%JB Demonstrating left and right pages
%\usepackage{fancyhdr}%JB cannot be used with memoir
\OnehalfSpacing
\chapterstyle{verville}
\pagestyle{plain}
\makeevenfoot{plain}{\thepage}{}{}
\makeoddfoot{plain}{}{}{\thepage}
\begin{document}
\blinddocument
\end{document}

Or i misunderstood the question?

[goltoof]

Better. Without the fancyhdr though I'm not getting the page headers I'm after with sections number, chapter & section names as in the original example.

[Johannes_B]

So that was the purpose of fancyhdr.

Code: Select all

\documentclass[11pt,
%letter% JB: unknown
%,oneside%JB: Apparently, you don't want this?
]{memoir}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[english]{babel}
\usepackage{blindtext}
\usepackage{showframe}%JB Demonstrating left and right pages
%\usepackage{fancyhdr}%JB cannot be used with memoir
\OnehalfSpacing
\chapterstyle{verville}
\makeevenhead{headings}{}{}{\slshape\leftmark}
\makeoddhead{headings}{\slshape\rightmark}{}{}
\makeevenfoot{headings}{\thepage}{}{}
\makeoddfoot{headings}{}{}{\thepage}
\begin{document}
\blinddocument
\end{document}

Still unclear how the headings work. It's for a manual not a book so the header is the same on every page with Section # & Section Name on the left, and Chapter Title on the right as in the original example.

[Johannes_B]

What do you see when you click on open in online editor just bove my last code example?

[goltoof]

Here's the header I desire, except the chapter name and section should be swapped..

In your example it shows the chapter name and section on even page, section only on odd pages.

[Johannes_B]

Like this?

\makeoddhead{headings}{\slshape\leftmark}{}{\slshape\rightmark}
\makeevenfoot{headings}{\thepage}{}{}
\makeoddfoot{headings}{}{}{\thepage}
\begin{document}
\blinddocument
\end{document}

Yes I finally figured it out just after responding. Oddly enough the chapter page is showing the page number in the center again, swore that was fixed before.

It would be nice to show "Page x of xx" for the page #. It would also be nice to show the document revision # on the opposite side of the page number. Is there a good rundown out there how to handle/display document revisions?

[Johannes_B]

Package lastpage can help with the page x of y issue.

About the document revision, you need to provide some more information.
