Continuously numbering figures and tables

Post by Mohamad »

Peace be upon you
I would like to ask about numbering of figures and tables while ignoring numbering using "Chapter.number_of_figure"... just using absolute numbering
,for example
in my essay i have 2 chapters, first and second figures in chapter one will be 1.1 and 1.2
In chapter 2 figure numbering will be 2.1 and 2.2 and so on
now just i want to use total number of figure as counter, for example,
figures in chapter one will be 1 and 2
figures in chapter two will be 3 and 4 and so on
it that possible
Thanks a lot .. and sorry about my language :)

You could try:

Code: Select all

\usepackage{chngcntr}
\counterwithout{figure}{chapter}
See the chngcntr documentation for more info.

Now that the problem is solved, please be so kind and mark the topic (not the last post) accordingly as clearly written in the Board Rules (to be read before posting). Please keep that in mind for the future so that further reminders will not be necessary.
