Custom cross-reference
Hi, apologies if this has been discussed previously but I couldn’t see to find it in the search.
Is there a way to only display the numerical value of a figure, when using Cross-reference? Rather than the label and number, and for this format to be preserved when updating. I have a document that contains multiple figures that I’m trying to cite in the text body using the Cross-reference tool, so that they update when the order of figures is changed. Many of the figures have sub-parts that are labelled (e.g. A, B, C etc). The figures themselves are captioned as Fig.1 example and Fig.2 example. I would like only the figure number to appear in-text as the cross-reference, that way i can choose if the prefix is Fig. or Figs. I have attached a screenshot that hopefully explains. Many thanks for any assistance. cheers |

The easiest solution is to manually enclose the caption number in a bookmark and then insert a cross-reference to the text of that bookmark.
