[Tex/LaTex] Captions: Write directly below “Figure”

captions

a typical caption below an image looks like:

Fig 1.1: Whatever the content might be
______ it is described here.

My problem is that I'd like to write below "Fig 1.1" at the position of ______. I've managed to replace "Figure" by Fig, thus the lost space isn't that huge, but it's still annoying… Is there any way avaid this indent?
Maybe something with \noindent? But this would require inserting manual line breaks everywhere…

I can't provide a minimum working example since it would require an image however everyone should see the issue when writing a little caption of at least two lines below an image.

Can anybody help me with this?

You can set the caption indent to 0pt using \setcapindent; a little example using some of you settings for caption (I suppressed format=hang, justification=RaggedLeft, since they are contradictory with your desired formatting):

\documentclass{scrreprt}
\usepackage[singlelinecheck=false, figurename=Fig., aboveskip=7pt, belowskip=0pt]{caption}
\setcapindent{0pt}

\begin{document}

\chapter{Test Chapter}
\begin{figure}
\centering
A
\caption{Some text here to replace the actual caption for this figure. Add some more text to span several lines.}
\end{figure}

\end{document}
