not numbering floats

2010-02-13 Thread Richard Brown
I don't want my photographs to be prefaced with any text or numbers, but
only to have the captions I've inserted in each float. My doc is in Italian

So I tried


\usepackage{babel}

\addto\captionsitalian{

\renewcommand{\figurename}{}

}

\renewcommand{\thefigure}



This almost does the job: Figure has become an empty string, and it's not
numbering anything. But I still get the colon which is intended to separate
Figure N: from the caption. How can I get rid of this?

If you have the caption package installed, try adding this to the 
preamble (in lieu of what you've got above):


\usepackage{caption}
\captionsetup[figure]{labelformat=empty}
