I have this caption of figure: \caption{these are my figure. (a):aaaaa. (b): bbbbbb.} that appear in below of figure in text. All part of this caption appear in list of figure. I want only appear this : these are my figure. in list of figure. is there any way ?
When I use \listoftables and \listoffigures I get in the list long captions that appear next to the tables/figures.  I would like to use short captions for this list which summarize these captions. Is that common to do? If so, what is one way to do it?
When should I implement IDisposable? How to align two images side by side if one label has more lines I have two same sized images and want them side by side with a caption under them.  My code looks like this:   \begin{figure}[H] \centering \begin{minipage}{.5\textwidth}   \centering     \includegraphics[width=\textwidth]{3}     \caption{label1}   \label{fig:test1} \end{minipage}% \begin{minipage}{.5\textwidth}   \centering     \includegraphics[width=\textwidth]{4}     \caption{label2}   \label{fig:test2} \end{minipage} \end{figure}   which works fine until one of the labels has 2 lines, than it looks like this:    and I woud like to prevent it to look something like this:    How can it be done?  Thanks Given complex $|z_{1}| = 2\;\;,|z_{2}| = 3\;\;, |z_{3}| = 4\;\;$ : when and what is $\max$ of $|z_{1}-z_{2}|^2+|z_{2}-z_{3}|^2+|z_{3}-z_{1}|^2$ Can an Animagus take the form of any animal? Similar to my old question about  are there any limits to the animal forms an Animagus can be?     We know that the animal form can be much smaller than human (cat, rat, beetle) so I don't think size is a factor.   I'm not aware of any Animagus who transforms into a magical creature (e.g. unicorn or phoenix) so maybe those aren't possible.   Ultimately, what I'd like to know is whether there could be a T-Rex Animagus... (prompted by ) input to pic with 12V and resistors I have 12V, Use these 12V to power a device (that has a 12V output signal) and to power a 7805. After the 7805 there is a pic microcontroller where I would have to connect the output from my device. I was thinking of having 2 resistors in a 3/1 ratio in order to have about 4V at the pin of the pic. Can this be done, given that the ground is common, or will it give some sort of problem with the lm7805? Want to copy the file name quickly in Windows. I always use rename, copy , but feel it is quite slow. Any better way? (Originally  by AJAY.)  What is the geometric, physical, or other meaning of the third derivative of a function at a point?  If you have interesting things to say about the meaning of the first and second derivatives, please do so. My pixel perfect picture gets blurry when compiled in LaTeX I have this picture:  (I have the original in Pixen and could export it to several different formats. I went with PNG though since it's lossless.)  When I open my picture in Preview (OS X) and zoom in, it looks fine. The characters have extremely sharp boarders between them and the background. However, when I put it into my LaTeX document, compile it to a PDF (using TeXShop) and then zoom in, it suddenly have gotten blurry (see screenshot: ).  Minimal working example:  \documentclass[12pt]{article} \usepackage{graphicx} \begin{document} \includegraphics[scale=1]{fig1.png} \end{document}   In the end, I would like to be able to scale the picture freely without there being any blurring at all. When writing my custom function I need to manually append node name to a taxonomy term link. To get the taxonomy term part done I use:    $link_uri = taxonomy_term_uri($term);   $path_alias = drupal_get_path_alias($link_uri['path']);   This works ok, now - I want to append node name ("/" . $node_name), but instead of raw string, I want the Pathauto transliterated output, as set in the URL alias configuration, for that node context.  What function should I use to mimic that output? I looked at hook_pathauto_alias_alter(&amp;$alias, array $context) but I'm not sure that's what I need. Show that if $ab$ has finite order $n$, then $ba$ also has order $n$. - Fraleigh p. 47 6.46. I was going through the topic "formation of comparative and superlative".       The rule says     When two objects are compared with each other, the latter term of comparison must exclude the former, as in "Iron is more useful than any other metal". If we say "Iron is more useful than any metal", that is the same thing as saying    "Iron is more useful than iron", since iron is itself a metal.   I am finding difficulty to relate the rule with example. How to use AT commands in Android by 'root' the phone We have various Android devices from Spike, Samsung, Micromax, etc. How can we issue AT commands from Android to the modem? We searched in Google Play but did not find any app related to this.   suggests:     [F]irst you have to root the phone...`    How can we do this? How to do the same crop on a batch of photos? I've got a batch of photos (an owl coughing up a pellet in case you're curious).  I want to make an animated GIF out of them, but the result would be improved if they were all given an identical crop first.  I'm currently using Picasa for my basic photo editing on a Windows 7 PC.  While Picasa does have batch editing, crop is not one of the items on the batch menu.  Does Lightroom have a batch crop?  If there's a way to get Picasa to show me the coordinates of the crop selection rectangle, I could also use that information to do the same crop repeatedly.  Are there any tools that let you crop an animated GIF?  I know I can create the animated GIF by uploading the component images to Google+ and then looking in the Auto Awesome area. I don't know about tools for working with animated GIFs. Explanation of the binomial theorem and the associated Big O notation How to check who owns the Slack's workspace? I'd like to check who owns (or at least some kind of public profile page) some workspace based on its subdomain (e.g. xyz.slack.com).  Is it possible? The reasoning my book uses is as follows:   Since $(3+i)(3-i) = 10$, $10 + \langle 3+i\rangle = 0 + \langle 3+i\rangle $. Also, $i + \langle 3+i\rangle = -3 + \langle 3+i\rangle = 7 + \langle 3+i\rangle$. So, $\mathbb{Z}[i]/\langle 3+i\rangle = \{k + \langle 3+i\rangle \mid k = 0,1,\ldots ,9\}$, since $1 + \langle3+i\rangle$ has additive order $10$.   I do not understand why the additive order of $1 + \langle 3+i\rangle$ is $10$, or why the fact that $(3+i)(3-i) = 10$, shows the additive order or $1 + \langle 3+i\rangle$  is $10$. If someone could please explain this I would greatly appreciate it.   Note: I apologize for not using MathJax to write this post. I intend to learn it over the coming weekend. Why wouldn't the `which` command work for `cd`? I can't find the executable for `cd` either! I tried which cd and it didn't give a path but instead returned the exit code 1 (checked with echo $?). The coreutil cd itself is working, so the executable should be there, right? I also ran a find for cd, but there was no executable file shown. How is it implemented then?  Update:  I don't know if I should ask this in another post but since I think it is good here, I'm expanding (?) the post... So the answer was actually quite simple, there's no executable for that — because it's a builtin — But I've found some builtins (bash shell in Fedora) have the executable files! So builtin -> no executable isn't right I suppose? Maybe an answer explaining what builtins actually are (builtin commands?), which actually is the matter here, rather than focusing more on cd... Some good links posted previously indicate that builtins are not programs... so what are they? How do they work? Are they just functions or threads of the shell? WP_query 'orderby=none' Problem I have another database which stores post's IDs and I want do display them using WP_query to use the WP default pagination. I'm using orderby => none to preserve the original order, but the result reorders them by IDs.  $ids = array (60, 23, 78, 46, 105, 130)  $args = array (     'posts_per_page' =&gt; -1,     'post__in' =&gt; $ids,     'orderby' =&gt; 'none' );  $query = new WP_Query ( $args );  while ( have_posts() ) : the_post();     echo '&lt;li&gt;';     the_title();     echo '&lt;/li&gt;'; endwhile;   Could anyone help me?  Thanks, Romulo De Lazzari Difference between LiveCD, LiveUSB, full-install, and persistence? I am currently running Ubuntu as a guest vm on a Win 7 host via VirtualBox, but I would like to have a portable version of Ubuntu when I am not using my laptop.   I am unsure as to the difference between the following:  1)LiveCD with persistence; 2)LiveCD without persistence; 3)LiveUSB with persistence; 4)LiveUSB without persistence; 5)Full-install.   I have a USB flash drive (32GB), and I also have empty DVDs lying around. I know that persistence means that data can be saved, but I am unsure as to which option to choose. What is the difference between a LiveUSB and a full-install on a USB thumbdrive and why would I want to pick one over the other? Thanks for any help. Why is $\mathbb{Z}[\sqrt{-n}], n\ge 3$ not a UFD? I'm considering the ring $\mathbb{Z}[\sqrt{-n}]$, where $n\ge 3$ and square free. I want to see why it's not a UFD.   I defined a norm for the ring by $|a+b\sqrt{-n}|=a^2+nb^2$. Using this I was able to show that $2$, $\sqrt{-n}$ and $1+\sqrt{-n}$ are all irreducible. Is there someway to conclude that $\mathbb{Z}[\sqrt{-n}]$ is not a UFD based on this? Thanks.
