Hi, all,
I have several figures, tables, etc. within various appendices in a
document. I've been writing the appendices as separate LyX files, then
INCLUDEing them in a master document, with (in ERT) an \appendixmore
before each of the included files. Because of this, my appendices are named
Appendix A, Appendix B, and so on (which I want).
When I reference (say) a figure in Appendix C, either from within the
main text, or from within Appendix C itself, the figure is referred to as
Figure C, though the figure label itself is OK as Figure C.2 (or
whatever). How may I fix this?
Thanks!
OK, so I'm going to at least partially respond to my own question.
At least part of my problem has to do with the fact that most of my
figures use the \caption[short caption]{ A possibly much longer caption
here} format. The ones which do this have the (unwanted) cut off version
of the cross-reference when they're referred to, but have the (correct)
short captions shown in the TOC, and the long captions shown near the
figures themselves. So I guess my original question should be amended to
say: How can I get proper cross-references AND short captions in the TOC
(without too much work :) )?
Thanks again!

Aha.
I *knew* that I'd find an answer after posting all this junk.
My problem was twofold (I think):
1. I had the figure label BEFORE the \caption command. This,
according to http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=crossref, is a
no-no.
2. I *suspect* that after changing the stuff in point 1., I
should have saved and closed, then reopened the LyX file. Sometimes I have
to do this to get things to reliably update.
Once I took care of both of the points, I got cross-references to behave as
I think they should.
Cheers! Hopefully these posts won't count as spam, but might help
future searchers of the list (including, sadly, myself).
