Insert list of figures in the table of contents












60















Is it possible to create a list of all the figures at the end of a document (this I can do) and make it appear in the table of contents?



So in the the table of content there will be a line saying List of figures ... 19 for example?

The List of Figures is produced with listoffigures; you have to manually add it to the table of contents, so it should be preceded by cleardoublepage in order to ensure that the page reference is correct. Uncomment the phantomsection line if you're using hyperref:



cleardoublepage
% phantomsection
addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{listfigurename}
listoffigures

    I prefer loading the tocbibind package (or using special class faetures) because the LoF shouldn't be always preceded by a page break if one uses the article class.

    Whoever reads this - remember if your document doesn't have chapters (e.g. an article) - you'll need to replace {chapter} with {section} or something similar.

This answer depends on your document class and some related packages.




  • If you are using a standard class you can use the package tocbibind

  • If you are using a KOMA-script class you can use the option listof=totoc.

  • If you want to add the entry manual you can use the command addcontentsline

  • If you are using the class memoir the command listoffigures creates an entry in the table of contents.

    This is very risky, since it depends on the document class. For example, report prints listoffigures as a chapter*, not a section. Moreover, your approach will provide a numbered section (not common with the LoF/LoT/ToC front matter). Finally, even if you remove listfigurename, you'll be setting a sectional unit twice with your approach.

There's a really simple way to do this. Maybe the last comment meant that, but I'm not sure.
Change the name of listofigures by using renewcommandlistfigurename{}. So you can easy use section{Abbildungsverzeichnis} to insert the list in your table of contents.
