There is no parameter for that, but you could do a customization. All number labels are generated by processing an element in mode="label.markup". Most of those templates are in common/labels.xsl, and there is one that matches on "figure|table|example" and one matching on "procedure". You'll see how it adds a chapter number prefix, which you could replace by processing the closest ancestor section in mode="label.markup" to generate a 3.4.1 section number prefix.
That mode is used for the title, TOC, and xrefs, so they should all be consistent when you customize it.

The figures and procedures are labeled sequentially in the chapter, but I need them to be labeled a bit more sane - like Figure 3.4.5-1 or 3.4-1 or something like that so that the user does not have to refer to the TOC to find the figure. This would help the xref's within the document to be more clear and useful. I could add the page number to the references, but that adds quite a bit of overhead in a "reference crowded" document. I've looked in the stylesheet parameter docs but nothing jumps out at me. Is there any help for the hurting? (The users have me by the throat and its rough out there ;-) Cheers, Dean Nelson ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Get fantasy football with free live scoring.
