Page Layout ⇒ Display "Appendix" before "A" in toc

[latex101]

Hi,

I am using the article class and want to name my appendices
Appendix A Theory
A.1 One theory
A.2 Another theory
etc.

I want this to be displayed both in the table of contents and in the text itself. I found this code on the web

Run LaTeX here

which displays my appendix titles the way I want them in the text, but the table of contents still say

A Theory
A.1 One theory

How do I get the word "Appendix" to be displayed before "A Theory" in the table of contents?

Hi,

you can use the features implemented by the appendix package; a little example:

Thank you, that fixed it!

While we're at it.. is it possible to get the words "Figure" and "Table" to be displayed in the table of contents, in the article class?
Now it says:
List of figures
1.1 A figure
1.2 Another figure

and I want it to say
List of figures
Figure 1.1 A figure
Figure 1.2 Another figure

The same goes for tables.

Run LaTeX here

I get an error message that says
"Package tocloft Note: The document has section divisions.

! Latex Error: Command \c@lofdepth already defined."

[gmedina]

The problem is due to the fact that the subfig package defines the lofdepth and lotdepth counters so you must either load tocloft before subfig or load tocloft with the subfigure option (i.e., \usepackage[subfigure]{tocloft} )to avoid conflicts.
