Abbreviation:  ã|\tafã%
 
Parameters:    ã|submarkupã%
 
Submarkup:     ã|\titleformat, \incontentsã%
 
    ã|Description:ã%
The \tableformat markup  allows you to modify the  defaults that control the
appearance of the table title.
 
ã|titleformat{Nested Markup}ã%  controls the appearance of  the table title.
You may  use markup such as  \blockquotebegin, \hangingparagraph, \vertical-
space, and \centerline  within \titleformat as Nested Markup.   Other markup
you may use within or outside of \tableformat:
    ã|tablenumber.ã%  prints the most recent table number.
    ã|tabletitle.ã%  prints the most recent table title.
 
ã|incontentsã%  places the  table  title in  contents (if  one  is printed).
Printing can be suppressed by changing to "no."
 
    ã|Example:ã%
If you wanted a  table title to print in a  hanging paragraph style, and you
didn't want the table title put in the table of contents, enter:
 
\tableformat{%
         \titleformat{\bqb\hp\bd Table \tablenumber.
                            \rm\tabletitle\bqe}
         \incontents{yes}
   }

    ã|Notes:ã%
The \tableformat markup  must come after the \monospace  markup, if both are
used.  If you are  using \monospace, the only difference in defaults is that
the table title is printed in the \monospace font instead of \twelvept.
