General ⇒ Prefixing table/figure numbers in the list of tables/figures

[DannyBoy]

Is there an easy way to prefix the numbers in the list of tables/figures? For example, instead of it appearing as "1.1 Some diagram........ 1" it will appear as "Figure 1.1 Some diagram........ 1".

In one of your recent posts I recommended the tocloft package. Read the documentation.

[DannyBoy]

When including the package in a previously working document I receive errors ("!LaTeX Error: Command \c@lofdepth already defined. Or name \end... illegal"). I am then directed to a piece of text that bears no obvious relation to the error. (Sorry, but I don't have a MWE...)

[gmedina]

Then build one. It's not so hard. Here you can find the guidelines.

The conflict seems to be between the subfigure and tocloft packages. Are there any reasons why they shouldn't play well together?

[gmedina]

The subfigure package is obsolete. You should use the subfig package instead.

[DannyBoy]

subfig doesn't seem to like tocloft either, as this gives me errors.

Code: Select all

\documentclass[article]{article}

\usepackage{subfig}
\usepackage{tocloft}

\title{This is the title}
\author{Mr. A Person}

\begin{document}
\maketitle
Here is some text
\end{document} 

However, when I change the order of subfig and tocloft the errors disappear. Is this indicative of a greater problem?

Ignore the last post... I RTFM, as instructed...
