Wrong Caption for a Group of Figures on multiple Pages

Post by syed_usman_ahmed »

Hello everyone,

I am having a problem with the use of a list of figures spanning over two pages. There are a total of six figures. What I want is to place first four on first page and last two on next page. Additionally there should be a footnote for each figure and one figure caption at the end.
After a lot of internet search I achieved this with a minor problem. Here is what I did:

Code: Select all

\begin{figure*}
\centering
\subfloat[][]{\includegraphics[width=0.65\linewidth]{fig/dynamic1}}\\
\subfloat[][]{\includegraphics[width=0.65\linewidth]{fig/dynamic2}}\\
\subfloat[][]{\includegraphics[width=0.65\linewidth]{fig/dynamic3}}\\
\subfloat[][]{\includegraphics[width=0.65\linewidth]{fig/dynamic4}}\\
\end{figure*}

\begin{figure*}
\ContinuedFloat \centering
\subfloat[][]{\includegraphics[width=0.65\linewidth]{fig/dynamic5}}\\
\subfloat[][]{\includegraphics[width=0.65\linewidth]{fig/dynamic6}}\\
\caption{Experimental evaluation of GAPCNN.}
 \label{dynamic_comp}
\end{figure*}
But the problem is that the caption number is repeated, i.e. its giving this figure and the previous figure both the same number. (Fig. 21 for both in this case).

Can anyone help me to resolve this issue.

Kindly prepare a self-contained, thus proper minimal example to avoid guesswork.


Best regards and welcome to the board

\ContinuedFloat offered by the subfig package is not designed for having a figure or table environment without \caption.
