I found an extension for this. This solves exactly what we needed. https://bitbucket.org/arjones6/sphinx-numfig/wiki/Home arjones6 / sphinx-numfig An extension for sphinx that adds the ability to reference figures by number or page. Also can be used to modify figure captions in html rendering to include a figure number. :num: Provides a link to the referenced figure, with the text of the link being the figure number instead of the figure caption. To include more than just the figure number in the link, use the role as follows :num:`figure #reftarget`. Provided that reftarget refers to the 3rd figure, this would be replaced with a link that says "figure 3". :page: The reference will be replaced by the page number the referenced figure occurs on. This only works with latex output and is ignored for other outputs. Note: The :page: does not display correctly in HTML. But, I didn't need that feature (though I posted an issue since I might like it later). Kathy -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sphinx-dev" group.
