List of figures as a chapter

Question

I am trying to generate a list of figures and tables. As they form part of the final part of my thesis, I want them as a chapter. Bibliography is A, Appendix is B and so on... I manage to delete the title of the "List of figures", but when I want to include it in the chapter, it does not work. The chapter "list of figures" is empty and one page later, the list of figures appears without title.

\chapter[List of figures]
\renewcommand\listfigurename{}
\listoffigures
%\addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{\protect\textbf{List of figures}}

I have also tried to put the title of lof as C. List of figures and remove it as a chapter. That's a solution, but not very elegant, as up to that part, all the chapters below will have to be entered manually. Does anybody have a better alternative? Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

I finally did it. The etoolbox did not work for me. Thanks, though.

What it did was to change the documentclass to scrreprt and include listof=numbered while defining the documentclass. I also joined lof with lot.

\listoffigures
\begingroup
\let\clearpage\relax
\listoftables
\endgroup

Solutions were here: List of figures as chapter (even though I had to test some alternatives) and for binding lof with tol: How to show \listoffigures and \listoftables on one page and in the ToC?
