Captions and tables of figures<br />

FreeOffice: This feature is not included in <strong>SoftMaker</strong> FreeOffice.<br />

You can insert automatically numbered captions below images – for example,<br />

“Figure 1”, “Figure 2” etc. When you have done that, you can even add a table of<br />

figures to the document. It presents a list of all images that you have labeled that<br />

way, including their page numbers.<br />

Captions can be added not only to images but also to any other kind of text elements.<br />

For example, the tables in a document can be labeled as well.<br />

You can even insert captions for the images and the tables in a document, with both<br />

of them using their own numbering. Apart from that, you can insert an individual<br />

table of figures for each of them.<br />

Working with captions and tables of figures is actually quite easy:<br />

Inserting captions for images and other objects<br />

Use the Insert > Caption command to insert an automatically numbered<br />

caption into the text.<br />

For example, if you want to label the images in a document, simply select the<br />

image of interest and invoke this command. TextMaker will insert a caption below<br />

the picture. It consists of a label and a sequential number – e.g. “Figure 1”.<br />

The numbering is performed fully automatically: If you add additional captions<br />

or remove existing ones, all other numbers are adapted accordingly.<br />

If desired, you can always type in some explanatory text behind the caption –<br />

for example, to extend the caption “Figure 1” to “Figure 1: The Larch”.<br />

Creating a table of figures<br />

Once you have inserted captions, you can use the Tools > Generate Table of<br />

Figures command to insert a table of figures into the text. It presents a list of all<br />

images that you have added captions to.<br />
