Default TOC vs. Table of Figures

When I create a Table of Contents, you get a table title. When you click that title, it selects the entire table and gives you the option to update the table.

Does this same feature exist for a Table of Figures ? Can't seem to find any reference to it. I know you can do it in REFERENCES, but I understood you do this through clicking the TOF also. The only Title I have been able to create is plain text over top of the TOF.



Can anyone help ?

Thank You.

Bobby

Thank you for the reply. Great information. HOWEVER ...

I am doing a Table of Figures. Isn’t this handled totally different than a TOC ?

The Table of Figures uses the TOC field.
You can use the TOC Heading style to put a heading there. If you want this to show up in the Table of Contents, you would probably want to use Heading 1 style. (Other heading styles can also be used but you will want to adjust the formatting both of the heading and of the TOC # style.) You could also use your own custom paragraph style for that heading.

If you want, once you have a Table of Figures and heading you like, you can select them and using the Table of Contents menu, add it to the Table of Contents gallery so that you can automatically insert a TOF with the title.

Right click in the field, not the title, to update. You can also click in the TOF and press the F9 key.
