I'd like to use these two lines in a cross reference:

Id 069
Workshop Title

so that my cross reference looks like this

"Id 069 - Workshop Title on page 22"


If the Workshop ID and Title are two separate paragraphs, you can use a cross-format which retrieves information from separate paragraphs: the one you are pointing to (which will also store cross-ref marker) and one or more *preceding* paragraphs with a specified format (using the <$paratext[paratag]> building block). (This applies to all versions of FM)

For example, assuming these paragraphs...

<pgftag=WorkshopID>ID 069
<pgftag=any>Workshop Title

  ... your cross-reference format would be:

<$paratext[WorkshopID]> – <$paratext>

(and you point to the *any* pgf tag when inserting the cross-reference).
