Hello, is there a way to reduce the font size of the figures and table lists?

thank you very much, Malte

Hi Malte,

it seems the tocloft LaTeX package can be used for this (https://mirror.ox.ac.uk/sites/ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/tocloft/tocloft.pdf).

That is, try to add something like

\usepackage{tocloft}
\renewcommand\cftfigfont{\tiny}

in templates/template.tex

It seems it'll require some additional tweaking, because it seems the tocloft package has the side effect of changing the style of the headers in the table of contents, list of figures, and list of tables, so you'll need to figure out how to set that back to the original style, which will probably require some digging through ociamthesis.cls, which I haven't got time to do myself at the moment!
