BibTeX clarification

Post by rajini »

hello all,
How to control the order of references.
For eg., In first chapter of my thesis the first reference's number starts from 10. But i want it to be 1. It is because that the list of figures/tables section comes before 1st chapter and i have cited some references in figure/table captions.

Is there a way to solve this peculiar problem without changing the list of figures and tables (i want these two to appear before 1st chapter and the 1st reference in the 1st chapter should start from 1.

thanks

Usually, you use the optional argument to \caption

Code: Select all

\caption[A caption title]{A caption title including \cite{ref}}

Hello Josephwright,

okay something like the command that we use in threeppartablex!
so inside [This is figure.] will appear in list of tables section and {This is a figure [1].} will appear below the figure. This is what i understand?
But in some cases if i need reference number in list of tables also what to do ?
thanks
