Question: headings not working

[user41284863]

Hello.

I'm new to automodapi and i tried to do use your library for my python code:
"""
.. automodapi:: path.to.my.code.with.a.long.name.mycode
:inheritance-diagram:

.. automodapi:: path.to.my.code.with.a.long.name.mysecondcode
:inheritance-diagram:

"""

However my path is so long, it's baldy displayed in my doc. Especialy inside the table of content.

So i tried to use the :headings: option to change the name displayed and avoiding th

"""
.. automodapi:: path.to.my.code.with.a.long.name.mycode
:inheritance-diagram:
:headings: My_Title

.. automodapi:: path.to.my.code.with.a.long.name.mysecondcode
:inheritance-diagram:
:headings: My_second_Title
"""

However it didn't change the title in my table of content, but added a lot of the firsts letters in my titles like this in my page:
"""
automodapi:: path.to.my.code.with.a.long.name.mycode Package MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM

Classes
[...]
Class Inheritance Diagram
[...]

path.to.my.code.with.a.long.name.mysecondcode Package YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Classes
[...]
Class Inheritance Diagram
[...]

"""

I didn't find any useful ressource except the documentation nor a satisfaying example on the internet.
Could you explain me if it's an issue or if i'm using something wrong ?

I think you need to tweak Sphinx setting itself. Example: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/20864406/remove-package-and-module-name-from-sphinx-function

@pllim
I added "add_module_names = False" in my conf.py but sadly it didn't do anything.
I'm using the theme "sphinx_rtd_theme" if this helps.

Did you try to ask Sphinx developers first?
