Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ justifying caption to table width

[ruchir_iit]

Hi,

Is there a way to justify a long caption to the table width. This means that the width of a long caption does not go beyond the table width even if the caption is split into multiple lines.

Regards,
Ruchir

Hi,

you can use some of the features provided by the floatrow package; a little example:

Code: Select all

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{floatrow}
\usepackage{lipsum}% just to generate some text for the example

\begin{document}

\begin{figure}
\ttabbox[\FBwidth]
  {\caption{\lipsum[1]}\label{tab:test}}
  {\begin{tabular}{ccc}\hline
      column1 & column2 & column3\\\hline
   \end{tabular}}
\end{figure}

\end{document}

Please, refer to the package documentation for further information.
