colon and period in the List of Figures

Post by magya_bloom »

Hi,
when I generate the list of figures, I get things like:
Figure1:. figure caption....
How do I get rid of either the : or the . from Figure1:. ?
thanks
M

No problem here.

Code: Select all

\documentclass[11pt,a4paper,english]{article}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage{babel}
\usepackage[margin=3cm]{geometry}
\usepackage{blindtext}

\begin{document}
  \blindtext

  \begin{figure}[!ht]
    \centering
    \rule{6.4cm}{3.6cm}
    \caption{Dummy figure}\label{fig:dummy}
  \end{figure}

  \blindtext

  \begin{table}[!ht]
    \centering
    \rule{6.4cm}{3.6cm}
    \caption{Dummy table}\label{tab:dummy}
  \end{table}

  \blindtext
\end{document}
Well then?


Best regards and welcome to the board
