# Quero escrever a minha tese usando um modelo da Galeria do Overleaf, mas há muitas páginas vazias antes dos agradecimentos, declaração, índice, antes de cada capítulo, etc.! Como me livro das páginas vazias?

As páginas em branco ou com intervalo são porque a definição padrão para livros (e muitos modelos de tese na Galeria) é frente e verso, com cada capítulo a começar numa página do lado direito ("recto"), como é prática na maioria dos livros impressos profissionalmente. Para eliminar estas páginas vazias, basta adicionar a `oneside` opção (ou, em alternativa, a `openany` opção) à declaração da classe do seu documento.

# Agent Instructions

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://overleaf-pro.ayaka.space/latex/overleaf-learn-latex-pt/perguntas-e-respostas/63-i-want-to-write-my-thesis-using-a-template-from-the-overleaf-gallery-but-there-are-many-empty-pag.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
