How can I change the default behaviour of rightmark to display the last defined section before the current page. The default behaviour appears to be the last defined section before the current page IF there are no new sections on the current page.



For example, the following produces a sample document with the default behaviour of rightmark.



documentclass[a4paper,oneside]{book}
usepackage{lipsum}
usepackage{fancyhdr}

pagestyle{fancy}
fancyhf{}
fancyhead[L]{rightmark}
fancyhead[R]{thepage}
renewcommand{headrulewidth}{0pt}

begin{document}
chapter{Lorem Ipsum :)}
section{Paragraphs 1 - 5}
lipsum[1-5]
section{Paragraphs 6 - 10}
lipsum[1-5]
section{Paragraphs 11 - 15}
lipsum[1-5]
end{document}


It looks a bit like this



enter image description here



I would like to make it look a bit more like this. Notice the header now references the last defined section

Credits to David Carlisle for pointing me to topmark





As mentioned before, this can be achieved by using topmark. However, topmark returns the chapter as part of the value. So this can be got around by "silencing" the chaptermark.



In my case, I used



%Header / Footer info
pagestyle{fancy}

%Change commands so when `topmark` is used, the last defined section before the current page is used
renewcommand{chaptermark}[1]{markright{#1}}
%renewcommand{sectionmark}[1]{markright{#1}} %Uncomment this line if you don't like numbers

%Define the header / footer
fancyhf{}
fancyhead[L]{topmark}
fancyhead[R]{thepage}
renewcommand{headrulewidth}{0pt}
