Hello everyone,
Here's the link to his thesis; http://www.eecs.umich.edu/~adityam/publications/thesis/thesis.tar.gz
1. Is this the new official syntax?
\chapter[chap:01] Introduction
\section Motivation
Well, this has been possible for a long time. I prefer this over \section{Motivation} since there is less things to type :-) I don't think that this is documented anywhere.
2. How do I enabled colour links for the bibliography citations? I've tried - You'll have to move/delete t-bib.tex if you're running a recent ver. of the minimals to get the the doc to compile.
% env-thesis.tex lines 289-291 \setupinteraction[state=start,style=,color=]
Change color= to color=darkgreen (or any other color that you like).
\setupinteraction[focus=standard] \placebookmarks [chapter,section][chapter]
and
% line 3, macros.tex \setupcolors[state=start]
This will also make all the section heads colored. If you do not like it, remove color=something from the \setuphead commands.
% line 8, macros.tex \setupcite [interaction=start, compress=no,color=] %darkgreen]
cite currently does not support changing colors of links. You get the same color as interationcolor. I had made some changes in my local copy of t-bib, but that won't work because old t-bib uses deprecated method of setting variables and constants.
Yet the links are still in black. Here's the pdf; http://filebin.ca/mzxxpc/thesis.pdf or http://filebin.ca/mzxxpc
3. The entries in bibliography outflow into the margins; pages 23 onwards. I don't mind if the line contains huge gaps as long as the entries don't flow into the margins.
Add something like \setuptolerance[verytolerant, stretch] before \placepublications. Occasionally, I had to edit the bbl file by hand to get the spacing that I wanted.
4. How do I decrease the linespacing? Don't you agree with Minion Pro it doesn't look as good as with Palatino.
Change \setupinterlinespace [medium,auto] to [small,auto] or simply remove this line. Aditya
