Re: [NTG-context] List of figures with shorter captions

2005-05-30 Thread Michael Fuchs
Hi!

You can use the \nolist{} command within the caption for parts, that shouldn't 
go in the list of figures:

f.ex:

 \placefigure [here][fig:Res_FlussSkalierungsfaktor]
{This is a caption. \nolist{This part of the caption will not be
  listed in the list of figures.}}
{\externalfigure[ResDat32_PhiProton2][width=100mm]}

Instead the part within \nolist will be replaced by ... (3 dots).
If you want to change this default behaviour use the limittext-option as 
shown in the following example.

\placelistoffigures[before=\blank,criterium=all,limittext={}]


Best Regards

Michael

 Hello all,

 I'm busy with writing a paper for university and the teachers ordered me
 to include a List of Figures. So now I'm using \completelistoffigures to get
 the list of figures.

 However, my captions with the figures are quite long so I was wondering if
 it's possible to let ConTeXt write a different text to the List of Figures.
 I thought something similar was possible with the Table of Contents and the
 \chapter command, but I cannot remember how...maybe I imagined.

 So is it possible to write a different text to the LoF? I use
 \placefigure[here]{This is my very long caption} {\externalfigure[myfigure]}
 to place my figures in the text.

 I've experimented with using \writetolist[figure]{1}{short caption} to write
 a text to the LoF, but there are some problems with that method. (the figure
 can be placed on a different page than the \writetolist, and I'll need a way
 to stop ConTeXt writing the caption text to the list as well).

 Any ideas?

 My best,
 Tim
