Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ Beamer - subfig cancels captions numbering?

[zgung]

I am using beamer class for presentation and subfig package somehow cancels figure numbering. The next code shows that when you insert the /usepackage{subfig} command, figures don't have numbers.

Code: Select all

\documentclass[xcolor=dvipsnames, compress, 9pt]{beamer} 
\usepackage{pgffor}
\usepackage{subfig}
\setbeamertemplate{caption}[numbered] 

\begin{document} 
\foreach \xx in {0,1}{% 
     \begin{frame} 
       \begin{figure} 
         \includegraphics[width=5cm]{ball-\xx} 
         \caption{} 
        \end{figure} 
     \end{frame}} 
\end{document} 

Anyone can help me with this?

The subfig package loads the caption package and the caption package has a (documented) drawback when used with the beamer document class.

From the caption package documentation, section 5.3 "beamer":

Furthermore the beamer classes offer different caption templates which can be chosen with \setbeamertemplate{caption}[<template>]. Since the caption package replaces this caption template mechanism, \defbeamertemplate*{caption}{<template code>} and \setbeamertemplate{caption}[<template>] will have no effect when the caption package is used.

So either don't let the subfig package load the caption package, or replace

Code: Select all

\setbeamertemplate{caption}[numbered]

with

Code: Select all

\captionsetup{labelformat=simple}

Works great,)

Thanks a lot

\setbeamertemplate{caption}[numbered]
\usepackage[caption=false]{subfig}

You can then use your \caption as usual.
