Seperating Caption label and description

Post by ChoKamir »

Hi,

I a couple of articles I found on the internet the captions of tables were formatted like this:

Table A
Description of the table
<The Table>

While normally LaTeX formats the caption as:
Table A: Description of the table
<The Table>

I looked at the caption package but couldn't find a way to seperate the label or enumeration of the description. Any help we be appreciated!

best regards,

ChoKamir

Recommended reading 2024:

LaTeXguide.org • LaTeX-Cookbook.net • TikZ.org

NEW: TikZ book now 40% off at Amazon.com for a short time.

And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p

Forget about it. I couldn't read appearently.

The solution is to use:

Code: Select all

\usepackage{caption}
\captionsetup[table]{labelsep=newline}
Sorry,
