If this is inside a table float, just put the initial ERT block inside 
the float (not outside the float), along with the table and the closing 
brace (in ERT).


From what I've seen on the web, \resizebox is designed to squish 
graphics, not text. What usually works for me is to highlight the entire 
contents of the table (just the table, not including the caption) and 
reduce the size of the font.


You didn't indicate whether your tables are too wide, too long or both. 
 For tables that fit the page width but are too long, you can switch to 
a longtable.

As said, you cannot mix caption commands of the caption package and of the

If the documentation of the caption package doesn't help you, I suggest to ask on the newsgroup 
comp.text.tex .

Table caption label customization

[D . Zorig]

Hi all,

I've read KOMA Script manual.  But I couldn't figure out how to customize
table caption.
Now I understand table caption consists of following four parts.
1. Caption label
2. Caption number
3. Caption delimiter
4. Caption text

I want to leave figure captions as they are and change table captions to
have right aligned Caption label with number but without delimiter and page
break then centered caption text.
\setcapindent*{xindent} produces page break and indentation.
\renewcommand*{\captionformat}{~} gets rid of delimiter which was colon.
\setcapwidth[justification]{width} is used to change caption text alignment.
But I think it changes figure and table and I have set width each time.

Please help me on this.
Thank you in advance.

Maybe someone else will have an answer on a way to alter figure and
table captions separately, but I'm unaware of any way to do this with
default koma-script options except as you're already doing by
specifying the options per table.

I would just use the caption package as it allows for separate options
for figures and tables. Read the caption package documentation for
koma-script related stuff. For me it turned out to be easier to just
use the default article/report/book classes and then use packages to
format things the way I wanted. Since, additional packages don't
conflict with the default classes.

It is centered. I want it aligned to left and trying to do it this way doesn't 
work.

long table caption + table and figure side-by-side

Hi.. I have a long caption for a table and the overflow from the 
first line of the caption is not centered on the second line.. any 
way to center the second line of the caption also?

Secondly, this table is alongside a figure using the table and 
figure side-by-side tip on Herbert's page where the table and figure 
are within minipages and the two minipages are within a table float 
environment. I'm unable to get the table and the figure to align at 
the top... the table's caption is at the top and the figure's 
caption is at the bottom so actually, I'm not sure what the best way 
is to align these (I'm guessing the answer is top alignment with the 
table caption's first line being aligned with the figure's top??).. 
please let me know if you have any experience with this...

Thanks,
nirmal

table caption width

[Gordon Wells]

Hi

I know I've posted this before, but there was no reply. I would like to
know if it is possible to make captions automatically adopt the width of
their respective figures and tables in particular. I guess this can be
hacked a bit using wrapfloats but they seem to be a bit unreliable.

Thanks in advance

Hi 

Thanks for the tips. Unfortunately I'm already using a modified mwbk
class and I'm a bit reluctant to change to another float system at this
stage. I've managed to manually adjust caption width using the ccaption
package though. What I would like to know is if there is a function that
returns table/figure widths like \linewidth does for lines?

Thanks

table caption

[Werner Pessenhofer]

Hi !

I have a problem concerning to table captions in a table float:

In my document I have inserted several table floats with captions and 
everything goes fine.
But the last float I've added cause following error message by compiling with 
pdflatex:

pdfTeX warning (ext4): destination with the same identifier
(name{table.1}) h

\end(document)

] (.AgBi-temp.aux)

When I change the caption to standard format, it works.
I'm using Lyx 1.2.0.

Any ideas ??

Greetings

 LyX always centers the title with respect to the page not the width of the

Put \usepackage[nooneline]{caption2} in the preamble.

But it is probably better to leave the caption centered, but also center the

Table caption

[Markus Mohr]

Hi!

I'm using 1.1.6fix3 with Debian/unstable. I try to have a table in a
table float with the caption below the table.
When I enter the table directly behind the 'Table:' text, I get:

(Float) Table:tablecaption name

instead of:

(Float) table
Table: caption name

Compiling that leads to two errors:
'Paragraph ended before \@ caption was comlete. \end{tabular}}' and:
'Argument of\@ captionhas an extra }. \end{tabular}}' (btw its a bad
thing that I can't cutpaste from the error boxes).

Putting the caption above the table works.

(Float) Table:caption nametable

leads to:

(Float) Table: caption name
table


thanks for the help,
markus

You can do the latter by moving the blinking cursor just after the
Table: text (and before the caption name) and pressing once Enter.
That way you should be able to insert the Tabular before the caption.

I'm using 1.1.6fix3 with Debian/unstable. I try to have a table in a
table float with the caption below the table.
When I enter the table directly behind the 'Table:' text, I get:

(Float) Table:tablecaption name

instead of:

(Float) table
Table: caption name

Compiling that leads to two errors:
'Paragraph ended before \@ caption was comlete. \end{tabular}}' and:
'Argument of\@ captionhas an extra }. \end{tabular}}' (btw its a bad
thing that I can't cutpaste from the error boxes).

Putting the caption above the table works.

(Float) Table:caption nametable

leads to:

(Float) Table: caption name
table


thanks for the help,

You can do the latter by moving the blinking cursor just after the
Table: text (and before the caption name) and pressing once Enter.
That way you should be able to insert the Tabular before the caption.

 the caption, but that results in some errors. IS it possible the get a
 left-aligned caption?
 An other question, is is possible to get two small tables next to each
 other?
 

Try to look at the Minipage.lyx in the Examples directory.

I also have seen the strange behaviour of the caption, I found a way
to trick it also by using minipages on the caption and giving it not
enough space to center in the middle of the page.
