I'm designing a book collection using the memoir
class. I want chapter titles to have a page for themselves (before the chapter proper). I'm using the following code for that:
\makechapterstyle{renaccs}{%
\chapterstyle{default}
\def\chapterheadstart{\hbox{}\vspace{6\onelineskip}}
\renewcommand*{\chaptitlefont}{\huge\scshape\bfseries\centering}
\renewcommand{\afterchaptertitle}{\vfill\cleartorecto}
}
The problem is that most other book divisions (TOCs, LOFs, etc.) also get this formatting—as expected. Is there a way for me to only get this results for chapter titles proper, and not for TOCs, LOFs, etc.? (I mean, I could change the formatting locally and manually at the outset of every chapter, but I will to have a class setting for this.)
Cheers!

A simple example, based on my earlier comment:
Try commenting out the
\frontmatter
,\mainmatter
, and\backmatter
to see the difference.
