Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ put period instead of colon in figure

[danesh_d]

Hi all,

I have changed the style used for captions in figures using:

\renewcommand{\figurename}{Fig.}

now I the captions is like this:

Fig. 3: my figure...

I would like to remove the colon and put a period after the figure number so it will look like this:

Fig. 3. my figure...

I have used "\renewcommand" with "arabic" but did not success. Can anybody help?

Regards,

D.

Use the caption package and read its manual.
