And I also want to reduce the gap between the header and first line.
Addendum
Just to be clear, I want to reduce the vertical spacing just before of any "Chapter #". This must be defined somewhere in mnnit.cls. But, as I'm new to LaTeX, I'm not sure how to accomplish this.
Here is the link where I posted the .tex file along with the .cls file used (possibly some command here needs to be changed).
\flushbottonand\flushbottomdoing? Do not know them, but sounds strange especially if you want to reduce some vertical space. – LaRiFaRi Nov 11 '14 at 12:10\documentclass{mnnit}isn't on ctan, so your example won't compile. the "look" of the chapter headings is defined by the document class, so unless we can learn what it does, no one will be able to help you. – barbara beeton Nov 11 '14 at 13:39\patchcmd{@makechapterhead}{\vspace{50\p@}}{\vspace{10pt}}{}{}% \patchcmd{@makeschapterhead}{\vspace{50\p@}}{\vspace{10pt}}{}{}% %\usepackage{algorithms}% \Add{} and \Del{} Corrections and \Mark{} \makeatother
