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

Question

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

Answer 1

Add this in your preamble

\usepackage{hyperref}
\usepackage[all]{hypcap}    %for going to the top of an image when a figure reference is clicked

Make sure that the \usepackage[all]{hypcap} is written after the hyperref package is imported.

Answer 2

\usepackage{hyperref}
\usepackage{caption}

Using this is a better idea than \usepackage[all]{hypcap}.

Answer 3

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.
