I'd like to add linenumbers to my TeX-file. I found the packe lineno which I'm using as follows:

\usepackage{lineno}
\linenumbers

Unfortunately line numbers are not added to the figure captions and table captions. Is there an easy way to also include captions to the line numbering?

    They are floats, what is the point in adding line numbers, when they have captions? –  Feb 20 '14 at 09:35
  • @HarishKumar: I don't understand your comment. My figure cations are quite long (20 lines). I simply want those lines to have numbers like lines in the main text. – Sven Feb 20 '14 at 09:50

    would it be acceptable for a line-numbered caption to have line numbers (re-)starting at 1? (i can't give an answer, but maybe this would help someone else. the answer by @HarishKumar implies that it's not possible for text lines in a float to have numbers in sequence with line numbers in the main text, since the position of a float is uncertain.) – barbara beeton Feb 20 '14 at 15:05

    The lineno package has an extension just for this purpose. Immediately before your \caption call, type \internallinenumbers. It won't work well if your caption lines have different spacing from \baselineskip, but it will work in a pinch. – Delyle Apr 25 '17 at 19:57
