Macro for adding a Figure

Post by thereza »

I am getting tired of all the steps I have to go through to add a photograph.

Insert->float->figure
Type caption
Insert->lable
Insert->graphic
Select graphic from list
Configure options of graphic
Select Graphic
Click paragraph formatting
Select centered, close dialog.

Is there any way to configure a set of actions which automatically apply when I drag a .png or some other graphic onto the workspace? It would save me hours (cumulatively).

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
