Is it possible to add captions to tables in Google docs?

I would like to be able to produce an automated list of tables. For example something like this :

Any idea ?

The Caption Maker Add-on detects figures and tables in a Google Doc, puts numbered captions above or below them and creates lists of figures and tables that can even be updated as the document evolves.

The "Captionizer" Addon seems to be able to do this now, albeit without page numbering. The creator says there is no way to lookup the page number in a google doc to be able to add that feature.

As @Falko Menge suggested in the first response Caption Maker appears to be the best option. The app went down for some time, but now you can install it without problems from google marketplace.

Caption Maker is available here: https://workspace.google.com/marketplace/app/caption_maker/226603355104

It seems to be working just fine.

Cheers!

  • The answer you refer to (though "first" is not a relaiable reference because display order is individually configurabel...) already provides a link. So what is the additional value your post contributes? Also, I do not understand "I went down for some time". – Yunnosch Sep 11 '22 at 00:27
  • edited, fast english, sorry. The contribute is the app link that was not available in previous posts. Plus, an app that covers the features described in the question. Cheers. – Rho Mar 30 '23 at 09:23
