Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ subcaption | Uppercase in References to Sub-figure

[fumarat]

Hey guys,

I've been a frequent reader of the forum throughout my masters thesis. I found solutions to all of my problems. But now there is one, for which I can't find a solution at all. I hope you guys can help me out with that one.

I am using the hyperref package with the following setup:

Code: Select all

\usepackage[ngerman,breaklinks=true,colorlinks=false, pdfborder={0 0 0}]{hyperref}
\addto\extrasngerman{%  
  \def\subsectionautorefname{Abschnitt}%  
} 
\addto\extrasngerman{%  
  \def\subsubsectionautorefname{Abschnitt}%  
} 
\addto\extrasngerman{%  
  \def\tableautorefname{Tab.}%  
} 
\addto\extrasngerman{%  
  \def\figureautorefname{Abb.}%  
}

I make figures with the following setup:

Code: Select all

\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{caption}
\usepackage{subcaption}
\captionsetup[figure]{format=plain,textformat=period,singlelinecheck=false,labelfont={sc,bf},skip=0.5cm,position=bottom}
\captionsetup[table]{format=plain,textformat=period,singlelinecheck=false,labelfont={sc,bf},skip=0.5cm,position=top}
\captionsetup[sub]{format=plain,skip=0.5ex,position=top,font+=Large,labelfont={sc,bf},labelformat=simple}

The problem: When I refer to a sub-figure with \autoref{subfigure} the result would be "Abb. 1a". But the desired result is "Abb. 1A".

Is there any way to modify the \autoref command to give the desired format?

I can't provide a MWE right now because I don't have access to the computer with my documents at the moment.

Thanks a lot in advance!

The problem: When I refer to a subfigure with \autoref{subfigure} the result would be "Abb. 1a". But the desired result is "Abb. 1A".

And how should the sub-captions look like? "(a)" or "(A)" or something completely different?

And how should the sub-captions look like? "(a)" or "(A)" or something completely different?

The sub-captions of my figures are formatted like this.

Code: Select all

A    B   and so on, so there is figure 4 A and 4 B

For example, when I refer to figure 4A with the \autoref command, the result is "Abb. 4a". As you can see, the letter that refers to a sub-figure is written in lowercase. Also there is no space between the digit (4) and the letter (a).

What I want the \autoref command to do is "Abb. 4 A" (-> Space between digit and letter and the letter in uppercase). I hope that clarifies my problem a bit more.

The subcaptions of my figures are formated like thiss.

Code: Select all

A    B   and so on, so there is figure 4 A and 4 B

For example, when I refer to figure 4 A with the \autoref command, the result is "Abb. 4a"

If the sub-captions are already uppercase the references should be uppercase, too. Since this is not the case in your document a MWE is mandatory to examine this problem.

Also there is no space between the digit (4) and the letter (a).

You can add a space by redefining \p@subfigure, e.g.:

Code: Select all

\makeatletter
  \def\p@subfigure{\thefigure~}
\makeatother

Thanks a lot for your patience

Instead of \includegraphics I used \rule in this MWE. The result is attached.

[sommerfee]

The sub-caption labels were not uppercase but small caps instead which just looked like they were uppercase. Since the references are typeset in the current font (which is usually not small caps) they were lowercase.

So I changed them to uppercase. They may be too large now (since uppercase letters are larger than small caps letters) but you may correct this by changing the option "font+=Large" if desired, e.g. to "font+=large".

So here is your example document, reduced to the code that matters regarding your problem. I have commented the changes I made. If you have any questions about my changes please don't hesitate to ask.

Wow, you are my hero

A simple and perfect solution! Plus: the small changes didn't destroy my layout!

Thank you very much.
I will mark this problem as solved.
