Short Captions for Sub-floats

Post by musiige »

Hi,

I would like to have short caption for my LoF and LoT. I have found this command to use from the net.

Code: Select all

\caption[short caption for lof/lot]{long figure/table caption}
But as I am using the subfig package, this does not go well.

How can I get around this?
Thanks

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

What exactly do you mean by "this does not go well"? The subfig package does offer the possibility of specifying a different caption for the LoF/LoT entry as well [1], so what exactly is your problem?

[1] See "2.2.1 The \subfloat Command" within the subfig package documentation
