List of Figures: How to not include the figure discription?

Hi, I'm writing my thesis for a Ph.d. student, and I have a very specific requirement for figures and Figure legends and tries to use the automated features of InDesign to help me. I know it must be possible, I don't know how. Here's the situation:

I need to have a figure which is subtitled as follows: 'Figure 1.1 products chemicals used. This figure illustrates the structures of chemicals...» In which 'Figure 1.1' is the number of digits, "chemicals" are the title of the figure, and the rest of the text is the real legend. I need them to be, as shown, in the same paragraph (IE not on separate lines). I have about 100 numbers. I learned how to set a list and then set legend style to use the list so that the figures are numbered automatically. Here's the question:

Then I need to generate a list of Figures (similar to a table of contents) which lists each figure in the following format:

Chapter 1. Introduction

Figure 1.1 chemicals used... 1

Figure 1.2 made molecules... 2

In which the number and title of the Figure are reported in the table of contents, but the figure legend text is not. I was able to understand a little about how to set up the table of contents report on more or less in the format I need to (although I still have to solve what I mess up), but the real problem is that when I automatically generate the table of contents, it includes the text of the entire legend. It is because in the legend of the origin, the text and the title and number are all one paragraph, so when I fill out the table of contents based on a definition of the paragraph, it fills with the whole paragraph.

Two things I can think that it can solve are if I can) 1 defines two different paragraph styles in the same paragraph or 2) fill a table of contents based on a character instead of a paragraph style style (then I could define just the number and title as a certain style and populate the list with it.)

Anyone out there have the solution for me? I clearly have a familiarity with the program (I went through all the class in a book in the last days), but am no expert. Your advice and assistance will be greatly appreciated!

These characters of width zero invisible are preserved in a generated table of contents. Modify paragraphs in the table of contents entry to include a nested style is none until 1 end nested here Style and a character style placeholder Style nested here until 1. The character style must not have any visible properties.  Create a condition. Set up the table of contents, then select include a full paragraph.  Once the table of contents are generated, use find/replace to find the placeholder style character and replace it with the State. Then, hide the condition. "

There are too many titles (some of them, a lot of long words) figure for the first approach.

Maybe I didn't explain it clearly enough. The way I understand you description, your auto numbered paragraphs start with a figure title, a short sentence as chemicals used, created molecules, etc.. This title is followed by a longer text, that you seem to call the legend text.  I think you want to extract the end of automatic and numbering introductory paragraph for the TOC. You found that InDesign cannot separate the parts of a paragraph to the TOC process. You also found that InDesign cannot easily put two paragraphs on the same line, so your disposal presents a dilemma.

There were descriptions of how to put the two paragraphs on the same line on these forums, so try searching on Google for "InDesign two paragraphs on the same line," 'Zero InDesign space before paragraphs' "InDesign negative space before paragraphs," and other similar expressions, without quotes. (Google searches find topics in these forums and other resources outside of Adobe).

The method of image inline was mentioned in another post on this thread.

as for the second, I'm still pretty new to this program I think I follow your logic, but will have to play a little to make it work. As a solution, it seems viable, but I am really surprised that InDesign doesn't have a feature for this built in - I think that this kind of situation would be pretty common.

FrameMaker has the opportunity to present two or more independent paragraphs on the same line. The so-called "break-in" paragraphs they are essentially the paragraphs with a "carriage return" but no line breaks. You can post a formal request to incorporate it into a future version of InDesign to https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform.

If you have the time, do you think you can only simplify/clarify this explanation a bit more? I follow your logic, but am not following how do a space character reserved up to 1 nested Style to end of style here. (Literally, I can't know which menu to open and what to do in order to complete this statement)

Thanks for your thoughts.

"Style of placeholder characters" may be a term that is too vague. I wanted to say that you need a character style that is not what anyone other than to identify the text to which you want to apply a condition, so that you can hide text in the table of contents extracted, by hiding the condition. The condition does not change a text property, although you might want to temporarily give a different text like a color property or "BOLD" when you set the nested style, so you can immediately see the result. After you've proven configuration, remove the property changed the character style.

Nested styles are created in the balls and Nested styles from the paragraph Styles panel Panel. Read more about nested InDesign using paragraph styles. You can simplify the insertion of markers end nested Style here using the quick apply feature. Him to the position of the text insertion point where you want to insert the marker, press Cmd + enter on Mac or Ctrl + enter on Windows, to open the quick apply dialog box. Type "here" without the quotes in the text entry box to view and select the command "Nested at the end Style here". Press ENTER to insert the marker and close the dialog box. Move the cursor to the next position, press Cmd / Ctrl + Enter again. Apply quick should redisplay and highlight the last command, "End Nested Style here." Press ENTER. Etc. Another approach is to select and copy the marker, then paste it where you need it. If you do not see the marker, turn on Type > show hidden characters.

    Hello, I use Pages. I worked on a document for several days, save the changes on the way. I have closed or saved the document and asked a question about saving the changes. I pressed on continue, thinking that I was saving my document. It seems that the computer has erased all changes I made since I finally opened the document. The document says he was created today, and none of the versions of my last week of work are available. I want to restore a version with all my important revisions. The menu 'Browse all' and 'Come back' do not have one of my newer versions. Is it possible to find?

    It is important that you have all the hours of backups Time Machine on an external drive. If open the recent item and return to the menus avail you nothing...

    Open a Finder window. In the search window, type the following line, replacing the date with the one that is relevant to the review date that seek you. The following explains show me all the documents pages that have been modified since the specified date. The same syntax works in the Spotlight window.

    modified: 15/12/15, genre: pages

    Also check iCloud drive.

    If it does not find the file you are looking for and you don't have a Time Machine backup, you've learned an important lesson or two.
