Deleting a Figure Citation or Figure List

To delete a figure or table citation:

  1. Highlight the entire citation, including the surrounding parentheses.
  2. Press the Backspace or Delete key.
  3. On the EndNote tab, select Update Citations and Bibliography to renumber the remaining in-text figure and table citations and update the formatted figures and tables.

To delete a figure or table list:

  • To remove a single figure or table from the list, delete the corresponding in-text figure citation. Then, use Update Citations and Bibliography to generate an updated list at the end of the document.
  • If you want to completely remove the figure or table list, first delete all in-text figure citations and update the list with Update Citations and Bibliography. Then, to completely remove any mention of a figure or table list, select the List of Figures marker or List of Tables marker and press Delete.

Note: Do not delete the figure (picture) itself from the document. Remove the in-text figure citation and then Update Citations and Bibliography. If you do not remove the in-text citation, regenerating the figure list will use the in-text citation to display the picture again!
