Environments
The template provides two environments to deal with figures and tables. Both will likely break if the content spans multiple pages. Therefore, it could make sense to split up large content and use multiple bafigures
or batables
.
bafigure
The bafigure
environment creates a frame and a label around its content and adds an entry to the list of figures. It also adds the given caption with a source reference below the figure.
\begin{bafigure}[
source=SOURCE,
placement=htb,
label=LABEL
]{CAPTION}
% The content e.g. \includegraphics{...}
% Large images should be nicely sized by setting their width to 14cm, e.g. \includegraphics[width=14cm]{...}
\end{bafigure}
Let's describe the optional arguments shortly:
source
is the source of the figure, it defaults to you. To cite something here properly\captioncite
should be used.placement
describes the placement of the figure, it defaults toH
, which puts the figure exactly where it was specified in the code.label
is the label, which you can use in\ref{label}
, it defaults to the provided caption.
batable
The batable
environment puts its content in a table environment and adds an entry to the list of table. It also adds the given caption with a source reference below the figure.
\begin{batable}[
source=SOURCE,
placement=htb,
label=LABEL
]{CAPTION}
% The content e.g. a nested tabular environment
\end{batable}
The optional arguments have the same meaning as for bafigure
.
source
is the source of the table, it defaults to you. To cite something here properly\captioncite
should be used.placement
describes the placement of the table, it defaults toH
, which puts the table exactly where it was specified in the code.label
is the label, which you can use in\ref{label}
, it defaults to the provided caption.
In case you need footnotes in tables possible options are outlined here.
baappx
The baappx
environment creates the appendix along with list of all appendix entries and adds required entries to the table of contents. It adjusts the behavior of bafigure
and batable
so that they do not add entries to the list of figures/tables and put them instead into the list of all appendix entries.
\begin{baappx}
\begin{bafigure}{CAPTION}
% A figure in the appendix
\end{bafigure}
\clearpage
\begin{batable}{CAPTION}
% A table in the appendix
\end{batable}
\end{baappx}
Throughout the document \theappx
can be used to get the number/index of the last appendix entry. An entry to the list of all appendix entries can be created manually with \addtoappx{caption}
The list of appendix entries is tracked in an extra file ending in ".loa". It might not be handled correctly by build tools when cleaning, e.g. "latexmk -c". In this case the file can be removed manually. In case your compilation fails permantly without any apparent reason try deleting the ".loa" file.
