Hi,
I've written my thesis with LyX, and it's I've been really impressed by it,
I've got everything the way I want it except for one little thing that I
just can't get to work.
My document's laid out with a ToC, List of Figures, List of Tables and then
the main body of the text. My problem is with reference numbering. I want
the reference numbering to start at number 1 with the first reference in the
main body of the text. The problem is that since some of my Table and Figure
captions also contain references, and since these captions are listed in the
Lists at the front of the document the numbering starts with them, so the
first reference in the main body of the text is number 14! There must be
some way I can make it start the numbering at the start of the main body,
but I can't work it out.
What you have to do, if I remember correctly, is use the "short title"
option in any caption where you have a reference. I.e., go to such a
caption, then hit Insert>Short Title, then put whatever you want to
appear in the TOC/LoF/LoT, etc.
