simply put

\caption [thing to go in tof]{thing to go under figure \cite{book}}

where you want the caption to go above or below the figure

Hello,

When I make a List of Figures (via Insert->Lists & TOC
-> List of Figures), the list formed uses the entire
caption of the figure as the name of the figure. Is
there a way to give figures names that would show up
in the list of figures but not necessarily show up in
the caption of the figure? As an example, what I am
hoping is that if I have a figure that is a picture of
an oak tree, then I would like the list of figures to
say only "Oak Tree" while the caption describes at
length the tree and its significance in the document. If this is not possible, is it possible to have the
list of figures only use the first sentence of the
caption rather than the whole thing (e.g. have the
first sentence be "Oak Tree."?


Thanks in advance.
