It's suppoed to be, but perhaps the Slackware packager didn't specify including the entire scheme. then try doing it manually I always manually installed LaTeX packages when runing tetex. I did so now with tocloft, but reading the doc told me it would take me a while to figure out just how to use it properly. So, in the interest of saving time I just added two protected spaces before each table and figure caption and that did the trick. Perhaps some day I'll have the time to learn tocloft. Thanks, Liviu, Rich

Liviu, I don't know how being multilined can affect the spacing between the numbers and the first letter of the top line for each one. Something changed and apparently had unintended consequences with figure and table listings. Two suggestions: - see if 'tocloft' can do anything for you It should. However, ...

Two suggestions: - see if 'tocloft' can do anything for you - this would be an ugly hack, but you could always add a couple of protected spaces (ctrl+space in LyX or ~ in LaTeX) in front of your captions.

Spacing Within List of Figures and List of Tables
I don't see an entry in TLC2 for this, but think that I faced this problem in the past and solved it somehow. But, I can't find a document with the solution so I ask you folks for a clue stick. The numbers and captions in the List of Figures and List of Tables have no spaces between them and the caption text. I have a space between the label and text in each caption but that does not seem to be sufficient. It must be something simple that I'm missing but I am not seeing it. Rich
