Hello all: I have a book with 15 text chapters, after, a part with 24 pages for ilustrations with is own list of figures and then two more text chapters. I have then a Table of contents at the beggining of the book and one list of figures almost in the end. My list of figures is empty. I have only the head (Ilustraciones, in this case). Is a structure related problem? or what? Is necesary some kind of definelist for the figures? Help! i need somebodys help!!

Hi,
i was playing with table of figures few days ago. My "solution" is
probably not the best one, but it works.
\definelist[figs]
\def\addFigure#1#2#3#4%
{
\placefigure[here][fig:#1]{#2}{\externalfigure[#3][scale=#4]}
\writetolist[figs]{fig:#1}{#2}
}
\def\placeTOF%
{
\title{Table of figures}
\placelist[figs][alternative=command,command=\TOFCommand]
}
\def\TOFCommand#1#2#3%
{{\bf Fig. \in[#1] } #2 \dotfill #3\blank[.1cm] }
For each figure you want on list you have to use \addFigure instead of
\placefigure. Is there any shorter and better solution?
With best regards, Crt Gorup

What is wrong with \placelist[figure]? AFAIU, \placefigure does something equivalent to \writetolist[figure]{}{}. so you should be able to access the list of figures using \placelist[figure]. Does that not work for you? Can you post a minimal example? Aditya

Hello: I have a book with 18 chapter. in one of them, the 16th, I need a local list of figures, I mean figures in that chapter only. But if I type: \completelistoffigures[alternative=c] I only get the head, "Ilustraciones" but empty. And \placelist[figure] Is also empty but without head. IŽve allready made list I need almost by hand, but anyway I want to know how to do it. Thankyou in advance. -------------------- Horacio Suarez Editotrial Antropofagia www.eantropofagia.com.ar

Hello:
I have a book with 18 chapter. in one of them, the 16th, I need a local list of figures, I mean figures in that chapter only.
But if I type:
\completelistoffigures[alternative=c]
I only get the head, "Ilustraciones" but empty. And
\placelist[figure]
Is also empty but without head.
I´ve allready made list I need almost by hand, but anyway I want to know how to do it.
Hmm... Ok, I think that I finally nailed it down. Hans, this looks like a bug. \starttext \chapter {Test} \placelist[figure] \dorecurse{3}{ % \section{ABC} % Uncomment this and everything works. Text \placefigure{test again}{}} \stoptext Aditya

this is OK, placelist[xxx] or \listofxxx give you only the entries of the corresponding list, you can place your own title with \chapter, section ... \completelistofxxx is a combination of \chapter{title of list} and \placelist[xxx]

Yes. I thought that the OP wanted a list of figures for the current chapter only. Usually, criterium=local does that job, but with figures, criterium=local only works if there is a section in the chapter. With criterium=previous, you get the entire list of figures. So, how do you get just the list of figures in the current chapter, if the chapter does not have any section? Aditya

I didn't know that "figure" is default list for all figures. Now I can
remove some code because \placelist[figure] in my document works.
Thanks.

it's rather trivial to add a list=no feature to float definitions so that one can say \definefloat[lfigure][lfigures][figure] \setupfloat[figure] [list=no] \setupfloat[lfigure][list=yes] and use \placelfigure alongside \placefigure Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
