longtable listed in at the list of tables

Post by Aske_88 »

Hi,
Writing my thesis in Lyx. Almost done, but I have a problem with a big table.

I have a longtable in a landscape mode. I can't have it in a float because its more the one page.

My problem is, that the rest of my tables are placed in a float and therefore indicated by number. My longtable, which are placed in the middle of the thesis, therefore destroys the numeric order of my tables.
Furthermore, I would like to get it listed at the list of tables.

Is there any way to do this?

You can use \caption inside the longtable environment. It is documented in the package manual.
The smart way: Calm down and take a deep breath, read posts and provided links attentively, try to understand and ask if necessary.

Welcome to the forum!

Did \caption help and all is in order? Would be good to know. For reference, the manual is here: longtable.
