I am in need of urgent help regarding formatting the table of contents in Latex. In the thesis preparation guidelines provided by our university, the table of contents, list of figures and list of tables details should be enclosed within a table as shown below:

In this connection, my question is How to generate the TOC, LOF, and LOT automatically in the above mentioned format using LyX.

  • current etoc documentation has a section 22. The TOC as a table which provides an example, together with the needed etoc style specifications. This should work for any document with only parts, sections, subsections. The \hypersetup{hidelinks} shoud be removed if you don't use package hyperref. I don't know LyX and I thus suspect that the raw LaTeX code from this etoc documentation will prove discomcerting. –  Oct 21 '15 at 06:34
  • I have seen awkward requirements in the thesis guidelines, but so far, this is the worst. Award for the most inelegant list of figures. :). BTW, in LyX, you need redefine the behaviour of \listoffigures LaTeX command in Document > Settings > LaTeX Preamble just as in plain LaTeX files (using etoc or something else) and then use Insert > List/TOC > List of Figures in the main screen as usual in LyX. – Fran Oct 21 '15 at 07:52
  • @Fran I wasn't clear in my comment that etoc handles only tables of contents, not list of figures nor list of tables... sorry about that. –  Oct 21 '15 at 10:44
