Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ Effects of different Labels

[minidiable]

Hi to all,

I would like to understand what is the difference between writing this:

Code: Select all

\begin{figure}[h]
   \centering
   \includegraphics[width=150mm]{pics/DeportanceForces.eps}
   \caption{Plot of the Forces on 3 axis (xyz) and of the Yaw Angle}
   \label{pics:deportance}
\end{figure}

and this:

Code: Select all

\begin{figure}[h]
   \centering
   \includegraphics[width=150mm]{pics/DeportanceForces.eps}
   \caption{Plot of the Forces on 3 axis (xyz) and of the Yaw Angle}
   \label{fig:deportance}
\end{figure}

Thanks a lot,
Fab.

Hi,

the label is a thing completely given by you. You can call them everything you want. If you choose fig or pic is your decision, but you should keep it that way and stay consistent.
