List of figures, spacing between number and text

Post by ddenton »

In the list of figures, the figure number bumps into the list text (caption) when the chapter number is two digits and the number of figures in that chapter is over two digits (e.g. figure 17.12). How to create greater spacing in the list of figures between the number and the text? The same problem exists for the list of tables.

Any help would be appreciated.

Try package titletoc (it's coupled with titlesec,but can be used independently): it lets you customize your tocs, list offigures and so on. As for titlesec, it lets make about what you want with section titles; you also can customize headers and footers (you don't have to use fancyheader for that, unless you have to do very specific things).

Best regards,
