babel renaming - joaomlourenco/novathesis GitHub Wiki

The general format for renaming the titles automatically generated by LaTeX is:

\addto\captions<LANG>{
    \renewcommand*{<SOMETHING>}{<NEW_VALUE>}
    ...
}

Where:

  • <LANG> can be one of the languages supported by the template, such as portuguese, english, french, etc
  • <SOMETHING> is what you want to rename (see below)
  • <NEW_VALUE> is what you want it to be renamed to

Some examples for <SOMETHING> (see the file NOVAthesisFiles/fix-babel.tex for some examples):

  • \abstractname — the title for the abstract
  • \listfigurename — the title for the list of figures
  • \listtablename — the title for the list of tables
  • \contentsname — the title for the table of contents

A complete example

\addto\captionsitalian{%
  \renewcommand*\lstlistlistingname{Listatos}
  \renewcommand*\annexname{Annesso}
}
