[Tex/LaTex] Subsection numbers with memoir + frontmatter

front-mattermemoirtable of contents

I've just tried to use \frontmatter with memoir class for the first time and everything works fine except for some weird detail. When I add \frontmatter and \mainmatter commands, the numbers of subsections disappear in the ToC and also in the subsection titles themselves. The code is the following:

...
\chapterstyle{veelo}
\setcounter{secnumdepth}{3}
...
\begin{document}
\frontmatter
\include{abstract}
\include{acknowledgement}
\setcounter{tocdepth}{2}
\tableofcontents
\include{chap0_intro}
\include{abbrev}
\mainmatter
\include{chap1_somi}
\include{chap2_simulation}
...

ToC looks like this:

Why and how can I get them back while keeping the matter-commands?

Sorry, I've found an answer to this question eventually: in the comment to https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/3329/3897: I should use \setcounter{maxsecnumdepth}{3}, not secnumdepth.

Or, even better, \setsecnumdepth{subsection} as said in https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/33458/3897.

\maketitle is a command, which 'disables' itself right before the end of the macro (well, it is \relaxed then). As such, a further call to this macro will provide nothing. By using a patch command, this \let\maketitle\relax can be catched and a \addcontentsline command injected instead, which will do the ToC entry then.

I further introduced a titlecounter counter, which is automatically refstepped, so that \label should also work. The format of the ToC entry is quite simple at the moment -- change at will.

Mico had an important objection: There should be a \clearpage right at the start of the \maketitle command, which will shipout possible floats from the preceeding article. However, I restricted this behaviour to the 2nd etc. \maketitle.

Version with level indentation

Use \setlength{\articlesectionindent}{10pt} (or any other appropiate value), in order to get the indentation of levels relative to the title toc entry.

The resetting of sections etc. is done with the command \@addtoreset{section}{titlecounter}, i.e. each time the titlecounter is stepped, the sections are reset (and consecutively the subsections etc. as well)

\documentclass[journal]{IEEEtran}

\usepackage{etoolbox}%

\newlength{\articlesectionshift}%
\setlength{\articlesectionshift}{10pt}%
\addtolength{\cftsecindent}{\articlesectionshift}%

** Warning ** Both versions will fail in conjunction with hyperref package. It's some issue with the \footnotemark command.

[Tex/LaTex] Beamer TOC on each subsection

This did the job for me. Although not completely. But for all practical purposes, it is close enough.

\AtBeginSubsection[]{
  \frame<beamer>{ 
    \frametitle{Outline}   

\tableofcontents[currentsection,currentsubsection,sectionstyle=show/hide,subsectionstyle=show/shaded/hide,subsubsectionstyle=show/show/shaded/shaded]}
}
