I use simple hanging captions for my tableheadings and figures. However, they are not aligned correctly. I know I can manipulate the indent manually, but I want to understand why they are placed wrong. Its not easy to see, but the second line of the caption seems to be aligned to the empty space after :, not to the first letter of the first line.

Here is my MWE:

\documentclass[captions=tableheading,14pt]{scrreprt}

\usepackage[ngerman]{babel}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}

\usepackage{tabularx}
\usepackage{subfig}
\captionsetup{format=hang} 

\setlength{\parindent}{0pt}  


\begin{document}


\begin{table}[tbh]
\caption{\label{tab:gzf_netzbelastung_ohne} Parameter für die
Bestimmung der der Netzbelastung unter Ausschluss der Gewerbebetriebe.}
\begin{tabularx}{\textwidth}{|l|X|}
\firsthline
Nicht berücksichtigte Haushalte & 10,29 \\\hline
Anzahl Haushalte - $n$ & 30\\\hline
$P_\mathrm{S}$ & \\
\lasthline
\end{tabularx}
\end{table}

Um den Einfluss der Gewerbebetriebe beurteilen zu können, sind die bei
Berücksichtigung dieser Haushalte ebenfalls bestimmt worden. Die zugehörigen
Parameter finden sich in Tabelle \ref{tab:gzf_netzbelastung_ohne}.

\end{document}

MWE

I load subfig because I need it in my original document - this package also loads the caption package. However, the same is problem arises without those packages. I also tried leaving the redefinition of parindent, but this also does not change anything.

  • Remove \label{...} from inside \caption and put it under \caption, then remove the white space you typed before \label. – Pier Paolo Jan 06 '15 at 17:37
  • @PierPaolo thanks, works like a charm and I feel like a real idiot to forget that space. makes me wonder where the best place would be for the label? Right after \begin{table}? – Paul Paulsen Jan 06 '15 at 17:39
  • If someone else reading this might also wonder where the best place for the \label is, I found an answer: http://tex.stackexchange.com/q/32325/41356 – Paul Paulsen Jan 07 '15 at 12:27

You have a space after \label{...} which is so produced in the output.

Either

\caption{Parameter für die Bestimmung der der Netzbelastung unter 
  Ausschluss der Gewerbebetriebe.}\label{tab:gzf_netzbelastung_ohne}

or

\caption{Parameter für die Bestimmung der der Netzbelastung unter 
  Ausschluss der Gewerbebetriebe.\label{tab:gzf_netzbelastung_ohne}}

will solve the problem. I usually place the label outside (and after) \caption.
