List of Figures Indentation

Post by nortik »

Hi,

Currently, my List of Figures items are idented slightly. They line up with the Section Numbers in the Table of Contents. I would like them to line up with the Chapter Numbers in the Table of Contents. That is, I want them to all be lined up at the left margin rather than a few spaces from it. See the below image for a visual:

I am working in the report document class. Any help/hacks/work-arounds are welcome. I don't care if it's pretty, as long as it works.

I would also like to line up the Section Numbers in the Table of Contents with the Chapter Numbers -- ie. get rid of the small indentation there as well so everything is in line with the left margin. You can see this in the picture. I think these problems are similar? Thank you.

The tocloft package can be useful. Study its manual thoroughly to get things work.


Best regards and welcome to the board
