How to make a hyperlink navigate to the top of the figure in LaTeX when using hyperref?


I have a LaTeX document with a figure and references to it:

\begin{figure}
...
\caption{...}
\label{fig:1}
\end{figure}

\ref{fig:1}

I use the hyperref package to get hyperlinks in the resulting PDF. However the link to the figure navigates to the caption leaving the figure itself out of the view. How can I make it navigate to the start of the figure instead without moving the caption to the top?


Solution

  • To previous comment:

    \usepackage{hyperref}
    \usepackage{caption}
    

    is slightly better than \usepackage[all]{hypcap} because when you use e.g. figure without captions there won't be a compilation problem. The caption package by default sets option

    hypcap=true
    

    anchoring hyperlinks to the beginning of an environment.
