Reposition page numbers in List of Figures

Post by ctyleruf »

Hi -- I'm formatting my thesis using latex and assistance with a few adjustments to the list of figures. Some of the captions in my list of figures span more than one line and the page numbers appear on the last line of the caption. The format requires the page number be on the first line that the figure caption appears. I am fairly new to latex and don't really know where to begin editing the style file. I am using the tocloft package. Any assistance would be appreciated. Thanks.

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

Hi,

welcome to the board!

Perhaps post a Infominimal working example, which shows the problem. For this, you could create a copy of your code, remove not relevant parts, so that you would get a short compilable document with such one (dummy) figure with such a caption, the short list of figures, tocloft loaded. Once we see the actual code, we can help to fix it.
