Problem with figures table?

Post by latexforever »

Hello everybody,

I've got a problem with my table of figures. In fact, everything is fine, but, at a moment (when I arrive to ´´3.8.10''), the captions (titles) of the figures of my document are mixed with the number of the section/subsection/subsubsection they are placed in.

What can I do ? I can't give a MWE, because I would have to give the whole document and it has a little bit more than 270 pp.

(I use

Code: Select all

\usepackage[latin1]{inputenc}
\usepackage[frenchb,english]{babel}
in the preamble.)

Thanks!

Include the tocloft package in your document and modify the according length for the width of figure (and table) numbers in the LoF (and LoT).

Code: Select all

\setlength{\cftfignumwidth}{3em}
\setlength{\cfttabnumwidth}{3em}
These lines go also into the preamble. More about the package can be read in its manual.


Best regards
