AI Thread Summary
To organize a list of figures by chapters in LaTeX, one effective method is to use the \addcontentsline command to add chapter headings before the list of figures for each chapter. This allows for a structured presentation of figures associated with their respective chapters. Additionally, incorporating the \usepackage{chngcntr} package enables the use of \counterwithin commands, which can be applied to figures, tables, and equations, ensuring they are numbered according to their section or chapter. This approach enhances the clarity and organization of the document's figures.

Does anyone know how to do this?
I want my list of figures page to be organised by chapters, with the chapter heading.

A crude way to do it will be to do your normal list of figures and then use the \addcontentsline command for the list of figures under each chapter with the chapter name. The add contents line command is described here:

\usepackage{chngcntr}

\counterwithin{figure}{section}
\counterwithin{table}{section}
\counterwithin{equation}{section}
