Continuous figure/table numbering in LaTeX

4. December 2014 by tom 16 Comments

In the standard document classes report and book, figure and table counters are reset after every chapter. On the other hand, article does not reset these counters when a new section is started. The chngcntr package provides the \counterwithin and \counterwithout commands to redefine a counter, by adding or removing a dependency. Through these commands, … [Read more…]

8. July 2014 by tom 2 Comments
