How to prevent page break after every section?

[jmichaelegana]

If a section is created, it forces a new page to be created. I have tried methods suggested in this thread: https://groups.google.com/g/comp.text.tex/c/ciatXgOObpM e.g. unbreakable and \filbreak but to no avail.

Thanks in advance!

Hi @jmichaelegana, In bioRxiv mode (twocolumn), a new section doesn't force a new page to be created. In submit mode, section*{} does indeed force a new page.

If you comment lines 277-280 in bioRxiv.cls:

% \if@submit
%   \let\oldsection\section
%   \renewcommand\section{\clearpage\oldsection}
% \fi

It should give you the behaviour you want. Let me know if that fixes your problem.

This works. Thank you very much.
