I am writing my thesis with scrbook-class in XeLaTex. My figures and tables have to be numbered throughout the document (not within chapters) and I want them to be spelled out ("Abbildung" and "Tabelle" is done by ngerman automatically). I also have to add the abbreviated figure- and tablename ("Abb." and "Tab.") in the list of figures and tables, which I did with listof=entryprefix and changing the entryname with e.g. \renewcommand*\listoflofentryname{Abb.}.
Since I have a lot of figures and tables, I would like the chapters to show up in the lists of floats to give it more structure and ease the search, which can be done by chapteratlists=entry. So, what I want the list of figures/tables to look like is this:
List of Figures
1 Introduction
Abb. 1 Caption of first Figure...........7
Abb. 2 Caption of second figure.......9
2 Second Chapter
Abb. 3 Caption of third Figure........15
However, the problem is that I get this:
List of Figures
Abb. 1 Introduction
Abb. 1 Caption of first Figure..........7
Somehow, the entryprefix ("Abb."/"Tab") and the chapterprefix ("Kapitel"/"chapter" which I don't want to show up) get mixed up and the entryprefix is transferred onto the chapterprefix, whether I change the entryname of figures/tables or not and whether I use chapterprefix=false/true. This is my MWE:
\documentclass[ngerman, listof=totoc, chapteratlists=entry, chapterprefix=false,% problem remains even if I choose "true" listof=entryprefix]{scrbook} \usepackage[ngerman]{babel} \usepackage{fontspec} \usepackage{chngcntr} \counterwithout{figure}{chapter} \counterwithout{table}{chapter} \usepackage{mwe} \usepackage[hidelinks]{hyperref}% % caption names \addtokomafont{captionlabel}{\bfseries} \renewcommand*\listoflofentryname{\bfseries Abb.}% problem remains even if I remove this line \renewcommand*\listoflotentryname{\bfseries Tab.}% problem remains even if I remove this line \begin{document} \tableofcontents \listoffigures \listoftables \blinddocument \begin{figure}[!h] \centering \rule{5cm}{2cm} \caption{First figure.} \end{figure} \begin{table}[h] \caption{First table.} \noindent \centering \begin{tabular}{|c|c|} \hline a & b\tabularnewline \hline\hline 1 & 2\tabularnewline \hline \end{tabular} \end{table} \begin{figure}[!h] \centering \rule{5cm}{2cm} \caption{Second figure.} \end{figure} \begin{table}[h] \caption{Second table.} \noindent \centering \begin{tabular}{|c|c|} \hline a & b\tabularnewline \hline\hline 1 & 2\tabularnewline \hline \end{tabular} \end{table} \end{document} Of course I read the KOMA documentation. Although it is so detailed or maybe because I am no expert, I could not find an advice for my problem and would be very glad for any help to get my desired output. Thank you!
