Creating a table of figures<br />

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

As described in the last section, you can insert automatically numbered captions<br />

into the text using the Insert > Caption command. For example, the pictures in a<br />

document can be labeled “Figure 1”, “Figure 2”, etc. This also works with other<br />

components of the document, e.g. tables.<br />

When you have done that, you have the option to create a table of figures and insert<br />

it into the text. It will contain a list of all images that you have added captions to.<br />

For example, if you have inserted captions for all images in a document, you can<br />

create a table of these images. It includes page numbers, so that the reader can see<br />

at a glance on which page each image is located.<br />

To insert a table of figures, proceed as follows:<br />

1. Using the Insert > Caption command, insert a many captions into the text as<br />

you like (as described in the previous section).<br />

2. Position the text cursor at the beginning of the line on which the table of figures<br />

should be placed.<br />

3. Invoke Tools > Generate Table of Figures.<br />

4. In the Labels list, select the label that you want to create a table of figures for<br />

(e.g. “Figures”).<br />

5. Specify whether a new table of figures is to be created at the current position,<br />

or an existing table is to be updated by selecting the appropriate option in the<br />

Placement group box.<br />

When you confirm with OK, TextMaker inserts the table of figures into the text.<br />
