On figure captions and other questions

[baarthur]

Hey Daniel,

Don't know if this is the right channel, but here are my thoughts and also some doubts. Maybe you can help me improve my template as well! I was almost giving up and proceeding to Overleaf or (god forbid me) Word, but seeing that you managed to do it gave me a bit of hope.

1. First of all, congrats! I haven't had time to check it entirely yet, but your template looks really good.

2. I see you also could not include the source and notes in ABNT format... My workaround so far is to do it in LaTeX format directly in the .qmd, like so:

\begin{figure}[h]
\captiondelim{}
\larguratexto{14cm}
\begin{center}
\caption[Figure 1 \hspace*{4pt} -- Michael Scott]
{\label{fig-reprex2} Figure 1 - An image generated by LaTeX's `includegraphics`}
\includegraphics[width=14cm]{images/reprex.jpeg}
\fonte{The internet.}
\nota{"Figure 1" above was manually written.}
\end{center}
\end{figure}

However, this has an immense drawback because (as far as I've tried) you can't include an R chunk in the middle of the latex code... And for me Quarto's major benefit is generating graphics as you write instead of saving, uploading to overleaf or whatever is your tex editor and so on.

3. I see our in-header, before-body, and after-body files look very similar. However, I'm still kinda new to LaTeX and I know nothing about Lua ---btw I'm still not using the quarto-journals thing for my dissertation/thesis template---. I have three particular doubts, and forgive me in advance if it's a lot to ask:
   3.1 Did you have to install tesesusp.cls in your tex folder? I had to put it in tinytex's texmf-local folder and then add it to ls-R, I guess you avoided that by using the quarto-journals workflow?
   3.2 I have a # problem: I cannot use Quarto's straightforward title setting, as you can see in my test.pdf. Did you face this problem in the beginning?
   3.3 I'm using my university's default .cls. Could you tell me what are the main changes you had to make in USP's .cls for it to work properly?

Best,

Arthur

Hi Arthur,

Sorry for the delay.

I'm working on a big project this week. As soon as I have some spare time, I will answer your questions here.

Cheers!
