Table of Figures

[Karl]

Hello,
I am trying to create a table of figures. The style of my captions is
'figures'. I try to insert a reference of table and index and in the options
I select figures as the style. However, when I select OK i get an error that
says "Error! no table of figures entries found!". What are some reasons why
it isn't finding by figure captions?

thanks in advance,

Karl,
If I recall correctly the pictures in the document have to be formatted in
line. Only then will the table of figures be shown. To format the picture to
be in line, in the picture toolbar which should appear when you select the
picture (if it does not, rightclick and choose show picture toolbar). Click
on the text wrap button and choose in line (top of the list).
Hope this helps.

Actually, the requirement is that the caption must be in the document
layer, which means that it could be a paragraph in the main body or in
a frame or table cell. In practice, this means that the easiest way is
to put the picture in line with text, and the caption in the paragraph
below (or above) it. If you want text to wrap around the figure and
its caption, you can add a frame around both of them: just select them
and, on the Forms toolbar, click the Insert Frame button.

Thanks Stefan, that makes it perfectly clear.

Correction: *text layer*.
