Split the paragraph after "Blabla" but format the paragraph mark as
hidden. Update the table of figures. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Max" wrote in message ...

If captions are generated based on styles, you would of course have to
apply a different style to the paragraph following the one with the hidden paragraph mark. Otherwise, they will both be picked up by the TOF. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Stefan Blom" wrote in message ... Split the paragraph after "Blabla" but format the paragraph mark as hidden.

To split a paragraph at the insertion point, just press Enter.
You may find it easier to see what is going on if you display nonprinting marks. To do this, click the ¶ button on the Standard toolbar (or press Ctrl+Shift+8). Paragraph marks display as ¶ symbols: Figure #: Blabla ¶ -- Paragraph mark more text here¶ Select the paragraph mark and format it as hidden (Font tab of the Format | Font dialog box). When you hide nonprinting marks (for example by clicking the ¶ button again), text will appear to be in one paragraph: Figure #: Blabla more text here On the Print tab of Tools | Options, make sure that the "Hidden text" option is cleared, and the document will print as shown above. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Max" wrote in message ...

Thanks Stephan! Does the trick exactly! only thing is that the document
changes shape when (de)selecting the ¶ button, but that is just a matter of getting used to it, i guess...

You are welcome.
Indeed, the fact that nonprinting marks change the appearance of the document might be a bit annoying, but remember that Print Preview will always show the document correctly, assuming that "Field codes" is cleared on the Print tab of Tools | Options. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Max" wrote in message ...
