Dear Martin and Andrzej! I appreciate that you removed the unnecessary dependency on the 'titling' latex package. The new LaTeX tag \bioctitle[Short title for headers]{Full title for title page} now provides the functionality that I was missing. This should solve the problems with the other packages as well. Thank you very much, Bernd On 08.01.2014, at 19:23, Martin Morgan <mtmorgan@fhcrc.org> wrote: > On 01/08/2014 07:13 AM, Andrzej Oleś wrote: >> Dear Bernd, >> >> the issues you are experiencing are due to some recent updates to >> BiocStyle.

My original motivation in making changes was to remove the dependency on the 'titling' latex package. I wanted to do this because it seemed to have unnecessary side effects (\footnote to \author no longer worked, and this is a fairly common paradigm, https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail /bioc-devel/2013-December/005098.html) and we seemed to want only limited functionality from it (using \title as a running header). There are several packages (perhaps some through copy-and-paste) that were already relying on titling, and these are now broken. > > http://www.bioconductor.org/checkResults/2.14/bioc- LATEST/DEXSeq/zin2-buildsrc.html > http://www.bioconductor.org/checkResults/2.14/bioc- LATEST/EBImage/zin2-buildsrc.html > http://www.bioconductor.org/checkResults/2.14/bioc- LATEST/arrayQualityMetrics/zin2-buildsrc.html > http://www.bioconductor.org/checkResults/2.14/bioc- LATEST/qpgraph/zin2-buildsrc.html > http://www.bioconductor.org/checkResults/2.14/bioc- LATEST/QuasR/zin2-buildsrc.html > > > Martin > >> >> Cheers, >> Andrzej >> >> >> On Tue, Dec 31, 2013 at 2:47 PM, Bernd Fischer <bernd.fischer@embl.de>wrote: >> >>> The definition of a short header title as described in the vignette >>> doesn't seem to work any more: >>> \renewcommand{\thetitle}{Short header title} >>> Is there a new way of defining it? >>> >>> Best, >>> >>> Bernd >>> >>> >>> >>> [[alternative HTML version deleted]] >>> >>> _______________________________________________ >>> Bioconductor mailing list >>> Bioconductor@r-project.org >>> https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/bioconductor >>> Search the archives: >>> http://news.gmane.org/gmane.science.biology.informatics.conductor >>> >> >> [[alternative HTML version deleted]] >> >> _______________________________________________ >> Bioconductor mailing list >> Bioconductor@r-project.org >> https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/bioconductor >> Search the archives: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.science.biology.informatics.conductor >> > > > -- > Computational Biology / Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center > 1100 Fairview Ave. N. > PO Box 19024 Seattle, WA 98109 > > Location: Arnold Building M1 B861 > Phone: (206) 667-2793 [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
