General guidelines
Why is it important to follow good practices and not get killed by a Velociraptor ;)
-
To restrict the length of the figure caption in List of figures use a [short-title] and {longtitle} for the caption or the section:
`\caption[Caption that you want to appear in TOC]{Actual caption of the figure}` `\section[short]{title}`
-
To exclude sections from being numbered and disable it from appearing in the Table of Contents use \section*{Section_Name} or \chapter*{Chapter_Name}
-
To only exclude it from being listed in the Table of Contents encapsulate the section command inside the
\tochide
command.\tochide{\section{Section_Name}}
the section will not appear in the Table of Contents, but the section will be numbered. -
When including figures in your tex file, it's a good practice to size your picture depending on the page size, instead of using absolute values. In the following example
0.75\textwidth
refers to picture width being set to 75% of the text width.\includegraphics[width=0.75\textwidth]{minion}

Use a
