Word 2016 - Picture Captions - How to Insert a Text Caption in an Image MS Office Microsoft Tutorial 

Very helpful thank you. Easy to follow, perfect use of mouse pointer coordinated with words to show where to find menu options, good pace, no jargon, clearly spoken, straightforward words used. Your teaching style is refreshing when there are so many fuzzy much less helpful "explanations" from people who are experts but can't explain themselves to learners.

Excellent, Adam! This solved an issue I've been using as a reason to procrastinate on a writing project. Many thanks.

I am so grateful for your knowledge and the clear and concise way you have of communicating how to go about the skills you demonstrate. You are a wonderful teacher. This particular video blew my mind. I had no idea you could do this. I have been placing text boxes below pictures before now to try and label things. I feel so silly. Thank you so much for this video!

I like your videos. You always give very good and simple explanations making things so much easier.

Excellent, easy to follow. Thank you.

Thank you that was so useful and helpful.

I would make the image bigger and specify that the captions differ per style, but this was very helpful in general. Thanks.

@professor adam it's a great video

Thanks dude..

Hi Adam. Thank you for the video. I have roughly the opposite problem. I have a document with pictures and captions; however when I update the document, a couple times a year, I often want to remove pictures from the updated document. The challenge is that if I delete a picture the caption box seems to stay, orphaned, in the document. Clicking on the box, right clicking, nothing seems to offer the possibility of deleting the now, unneeded caption box. My best work around is to delete all of the caption text, which keeps any words from showing up; however, still the hard formatting of the box is embedded in the document and Word wraps the regular document text around the seemingly blank caption box. Any thoughts on how to remedy this situation and remove caption boxes completely? I am surprised this isn't just a "click on the thing, then right click, delete" kind of process...

Many thanks!!

You are a god amongst men

Thank you!!

Thanks bro.

Thx man

you're a star

Great, is it possible to do 2 caption styles, one for table and one for picture?

thank youu

Thank you Adam. Please make a video on how to increment the label of caption with respect to chapter numbers. Example- Chapter 1- Figure 1-a, Figure 1-b, Figure 1-c...... Chapter 2- Figure 2-a, Figure 2-b, Figure 2-c...... Chapter 3- Figure 3-a, Figure 3-b, Figure 3-c..... etc. Request you to post ASAP as I am not able to proceed further without that in a project.

Hey Adam. Thank you.. just a question.. is there a way to decrease the distance between the caption and the picture. It seems like the default has too much of a gap. Thank you!

Hello, do you know how to configure the insertion of captions, but configured with non-breaking space? When I make references, it's cleaner.

Hi. What if I decide to move the picture (already with captioned made) to another page. Does the caption move with the picture (as group) or it stays as text and does not move with the picture? Also, say my 3rd picture is moved up a few pages in my later draft. Will the caption change from Figure 3 to Figure 2 automatically, if I will place the picture above an existing picture. I hope my question makes sense. If not I can clarify.

LEGEND

Thanq brother

Excellent. How do you share the captions put in the document with someone else who reviews the document? The captions added, don't appear anymore in the cross reference list in the document I send for review. If the other person wants to add new captions on the existing list, it starts from 1.

super video

How do you hide the partial figure legend from not showing up in the TOC, also my figure legends are having formatting error with the recent update on windows 10 the hidden function separates the legend into 2 separate lines rather than being a single continuous legend in the document. When I open the same document on a windows 7 computer with a similar version of office 365. It shows up good as a single continuous legend. Any suggestions on this?

great

I can't believe that those idiots at microsoft puts the 'insert caption' under the "References" tab. Any normal person would have put it inder the 'Insert' tab. Or at least the microsoft developers should have put it under both tabs. But you'd expect that 'insert caption' would be expected to fall under the "Insert" tab. Whoever decided to leave out of the insert tab should be just sacked from Microsoft. Or just sack the whole lot of them. I should mention though ..... this is a good video. Thanks Adam.

thx

Insert caption is not in my options for word 365

Hi. I have a problem with captions. I want to add a caption for pictures and tables, but the program adds the caption as follows: 1 Figure, 1 Table, etc. But I want reverse format, e.g. Table 1, Figure 1. How can I adjust the succession?

Hi Professor Adam, THIS IS URGENT!! My figure numbering is moving from Fig 4 to fig 101 rather than fig 5 and when I update figures it shows multiple entries

Hi Adam, Do you know how can we put a long text in the caption? very long text

Sorry I have a problem, my caption sudden change into bahasa format not english, how can I change it back?

how we can change the text into small letter in caption ' like figure or table etc...

How to enable auto caption to an inserted figure in word 2019?

Is there a reason why I don’t get the option to add a caption to my picture? Even after I clicked it

Is it possible to have the caption displayed without the number?

Informative but you left out an important aspect: grouping the two boxes.

I noticed you after two minutes in the video below right hand corner

I followed your video, but it isn't exactly what I was looking for. I have a Word document with several images throughout that illustrate points. I simply want to have a line of text associated with each image that moves with the image. BUT, I hate having to use the "Image 1-" or "Table 4-" intro. But I can't delete that preface.

Professor, I can able to enter the text in the Caption, the mouse cursor, didn't show up to enter the text. Please I request you to help me out with this!

i wanna add caption like this figure(1) not only figure1

How to remove the numbering from the caption? thank you

What if I don't want to label my captions "Picture 1" for example? Just enter the caption itselt?

God dammit! What if you just want the text without the box, such a simple freaking question yet after days of research not one person directly answers this question. Surely there is one other person in existence who doesn’t want that box

hi its 2020 not 2017 i want to be in 2017

Thank you
