Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ How to move the caption of a subfigure right?

[loujing]

My demo code is as follows. Now the caption of each subfigure is displayed centered. How can I move each caption (including the counter) by 0.5cm right?

[PS: I want the caption "(a) Data" is aligned centrally to the center of "Threshold".]

Very good minimal example!

The subfigure package is obsolete, it's recommended to use the subfig package instead. You could use the \captionsetup command to define a margin for the shifting. You can call it before each sub float command to adjust as needed.

Thanks for your help.

Now I'm using a given LaTeX template to write my thesis. If I do not modify the given template, I wonder if it is possible to tackle this problem by only using "subfigure" .

[Stefan Kottwitz]

How much does it hurt do change to subfig? It only affects subfigures, so no worries about other things, and the changes are simple, as you can see above. That's easier than hacking the old unsupported subfigure package.

Thanks for your suggestion.

Sorry, I'm not familiar to LaTeX.

I search "subfigure" in the template and try to modify them to "subfig" (totally two places). Although I comment all "figure codes", I still get a few errors as the uploaded figure. But my thesis works well when I use "subfigure".
I do not know how to tackle this problem.

It seems that you still load subfigure, so you get a clash with the subfig package (same commands, since it's the successor). Find where you load subfigure still, and remove it. If necessary, upload the full template as .zip file as attachment, if you like.

Thanks.

My template is downloaded from https://github.com/jiec827/njustThesis, and the URL of .zip is https://codeload.github.com/jiec827/nju ... zip/master
Due to the maximum upload size, I failed to upload it.

Thank you for your code and suggestion again. I have modified the template and replaced subfigure with subfig. Now it works well.
