Joseph Ervin <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] --- Comment #79 from Joseph Ervin <[email protected]> --- Even worse, after using the cross reference workaround for years where you use a special counter variable name for each subdoc, something appears to have changed in Libreoffice (using version 3.6.3.2 presently) that breaks this workaround. In employing the workaround, I would typically create a new counter variable type in each subdoc. This is easily done while adding a caption simply by typing the name directly into the caption type field of the caption dialog box, i.e. rather than just selecting one of the options in the drop down (Table, Illustration, etc.). So if I'm working on a subdoc called "foo", I would create "fooTable" captions. This automatically creates a counter variable called fooTable, and a paragraph style for the caption called fooTable. However, I don't want the reference text to say "Refer to fooTable 3-1 on page 33", so I would simply delete the "foo" from the actual table caption, and all was well,...the cross reference text would follow suit. However, in the latest version of Libreoffice, I now see that if I touch that caption text to remove the "foo", Libreoffice seems to be detecting that caption text no longer matches the paragraph style, which in turn is bound to the counter variable name. So on its face it seems like the Libreoffice/openoffice team has conspired to break the only decent workaround for this hugely problematic and longstanding bug. Swell.
