Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ Roman numbering in Table caption

[dmuthu_cse]

Hello all,

I am facing problem in generating my table caption in the following format. I think that caption package is useful for that, but i couldn't get what actually i want.

I want the table caption to look like

TABLE III ROLLED STEEL UNEQUAL ANGLES

But it appears as

Table 1.3 ROLLED STEEL UNEQUAL ANGLES
I am using this code :

Code: Select all

\usepackage[font=small,format=plain,labelfont=bf,up,labelsep=space]{caption}

Let me know your suggestions and ideas. I would be grateful if you can give me an example code for the format.

Thank you in anticipation.

Regards,
Muthu

I would be grateful if you can give me an example code for the format.

Here it comes:

Code: Select all

\documentclass{book}
\usepackage[font=small,format=plain,labelfont={bf,up},labelsep=space]{caption}

% Change "Table" to "TABLE" in tables, but leave \autoref intact
\DeclareCaptionLabelFormat{table}{TABLE~#2}
\captionsetup[table]{labelformat=table}

% Change the numbering scheme from "1.3" to "III"
\captionsetup{tablewithin=none}
\renewcommand\thetable{\Roman{table}}

\begin{document}
\chapter{A chapter}
\begin{table}
\caption{A table}
\end{table}

\end{document}

HTH,
Axel
