Customization of the environments for floating objects

The following macros can be used for customizing the rendering of figure-like environments:

<render-small-figure|aux|name|body|caption>

This macro is used for rendering small figure-like environments. The first argument aux specifies an auxiliary channel (like “figure” or “table”) which is used for inserting the caption inside the list of figures. The second argument name specifies the name of the figure (like “Figure 2.3” or “Table 5”). The last arguments body and caption correspond to the figure itself and a caption.

<render-big-figure|aux|name|body|caption>

Similar to render-small-figure, but for displaying a big figure-like environments.

The following tags can be used for customizing the appearance the text around figures, tables and footnotes:

<figure-name|name>

This macro controls the appearance of the text “Figure”. By default, we use bold face.

<figure-sep>

This macro produces the separator between the figure and its number and the caption. By default, it produces a period followed by a space.

<footnote-sep>

This macro produces the separator between the number of the footnote and the text. By default, it produces a period followed by a space.
