Reduced Caption Text in LoF

Post by carlosborrego »

Hello,

I would like to have a reduced version of the figure caption in the LoF similar to the \chaptermark command. Is there something similar for figure captions, table captions and algorithm captions?

Thanks so much!
Carlos

Hi Carlos,

sure, just use the optional argument of \caption, such as

Code: Select all

\caption[reduced text]{caption text}

Ups, that was an easy one! I thought the option worked just for chapters and sections!

Thanks so much!
