Table of Figures¶
Automatically generates a list of figures with page references, working with Figure Caption components to track figures throughout the report.
Text components · element type tof · no data binding — built from the figure captions in the report
Related: Figure Caption · Table of Contents
Options¶
Configure the component with these options:
| Option | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Channel | General | Which figures to list: General, Tables, Charts, or Images |
| Right align page numbers | On | Positions page numbers against the right edge |
| Tab leader | Dots | Connector between the figure name and the page number: None, ..., ---, or ___ |
| Leader Color | From theme | Colour of the leader |
| Column count | Not set | Splits the list into multiple columns |
| Column Gap | From theme | Space between columns |
| Fill Behavior | Not set | How entries flow across multiple columns |
| Sample Count | 10 | How many placeholder rows are shown while designing. Has no effect on output |
Appearance is configured under Entry Style for the entries themselves, and Styling → Style for custom CSS on the element.
How it Works¶
The Table of Figures automatically detects Figure Caption components throughout the report and displays them with their corresponding page numbers. The Figure Caption component includes:
- Name: Figure identifier (e.g., "Figure 1")
- Title: Descriptive title (e.g., "Sales Chart")
Both components must use the same channel to appear together in the table.
Notes¶
- Ensure pages containing figures are marked as countable for proper page numbering
- Use consistent channel settings between Table of Figures and Figure Caption components
- Configure different channels (Tables, Charts, Images) to create separate figure lists
- Place Table of Figures early in the report for easy reference navigation
