2nd line in caption for source

Post by clangkamp »

I have several graphs in my thesis for which I wish to add a source (e.g. Bloomberg, or 'own design') or another comment which should not show up in the list of figures.

I found one example for this where essentially in the start of the header the command caption is redefined to mycaption1 and mycaption2, but I am very uneasy with redefining Latex items, as it does overcomplicate things and also tends to mess things up when one changes fonts or when subsequently a publishing house takes over the script to apply their own style files to it.

Thus I would like to ask the question whether there is a standard procedure to do this ?
Example:

Code: Select all

\begin{figure}
\includegraphics(foo.png)
\caption{Foo picture} % Goes into Table of Figures
\subcaption{Adapted from Foo publications (2012) with extensions to module 3} % is just random comment
\end{Figure}

Recommended reading 2024:

LaTeXguide.org • LaTeX-Cookbook.net • TikZ.org

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

Hi and welcome to the LaTeX community!

Have a look at this thread Adding Source Citation to Figure and let us know if it helps.
