[Tex/LaTex] Remove ACMReference from Sigconf December 2016 latex template

acmcross-referencingpaper

I want to remove the ACMReference after the abstract. This fix is not working for me \settopmatter{printacmref=false}. Can anyone help? Thanks!

Putting it right after the documentclass worked for me. I don't think you need to do it after \begin{document}. Perhaps the problem is that you put it after \abstract? I think the macro is called during the creation of the abstract.

\documentclass[sigconf]{acmart}
\settopmatter{printacmref=false}

Some changes to the way \maketitle is defined by the class are necessary. Do not modify the original .cls file, though; you can either use the redefinition in your .tex document, as I did in my example code below (notice the section between \makeatletter, \makeatother commands), or make a copy of acmlarge.cls, call it myacmlarge.cls and replace the \maketitle definition in the copy with the definition of my example (without using \makeatletter and \makeatother, in this case); save the copy in your local TDS tree or in your current working directory and then use

\documentclass[prodmode,acmtap]{myacmlarge}

in your document.

The example code:

\documentclass[prodmode,acmtap]{acmlarge}

\acmArticle{1}

\begin{abstract}
It has been previously proposed that understanding the mechanisms of
contour perception can provide a theory for why some flow-rendering
methods allow for better judgments of advection pathways than others.
In the present article, we develop this theory through a numerical
model of the primary visual cortex of the brain (Visual Area 1) where
contour enhancement is understood to occur according to most
neurological theories. We apply a two-stage model of contour
perception to various visual representations of flow fields evaluated
using the advection task of Laidlaw et al. [2001]. In the first
stage, contour {enhancement} is modeled based on Li's cortical model
[Li 1998]. In the second stage, a model of streamline {tracing} is
proposed, designed to support the advection task. We examine the
predictive power of the model by comparing its performance to that of
human subjects on the advection task with four different
visualizations. The results show the same overall pattern for humans
and the model. In both cases, the best performance was obtained with
an aligned streamline-based method, which tied with a LIC-based
method. Using a regular or jittered grid of arrows produced worse
results. The model yields insights into the relative strengths of
different flow visualization methods for the task of visualizing
advection pathways.

[Tex/LaTex] Remove labels from showing up in final document

There are at least three packages that do this, see Printing labels along with equation numbers. They are showkeys, showlabels and refcheck. From your comment you seem to have loaded refcheck, and removing that solved the problem.

That said, the best solution to this problem is really just "make a minimal working example". In this case the starting point of making an MWE could be

\documentclass{article}
<your entire existing preamble>
\begin{document}
\label{something}
\end{document}

Then start removing things from the preamble, and you'll quite quickly find the package that produces those labels.
