More than 26 appendices

Post by umutayildiz »

Hi All,

In my paper, I have more than 26 Appendices and by using some methods e.g., alphalph package, I could not figure it out.

I want it the way in the following.

Code: Select all

Appendix A
Fig A.1
Fig A.2
Table A.1

Appendix B
Fig B.1
...

Appendix AA
Fig AA.1
...


It is also great if Appendices are written in Roman Numerals, like

Code: Select all

Appendix I
Fig I.1
...

Appendix VI
Fig VI.1
...

I would really appreciate if anyone can help me solving this issue.

Kind Regards,

The alphalph package needs to be loaded, then redefine the presentation of the appendix counter after \appendix, such as:

Code: Select all

\appendix
\renewcommand*{\thechapter}{\AlphAlph{\value{chapter}}}
Roman numerals can be used even without that package:

Code: Select all

\appendix
\renewcommand*{\thechapter}{\Roman{chapter}}
