The documentation__ is not explicit on the implemented directives for substitutions. However, it says: Substitution definitions allow the power and flexibility of block-level directives to be shared by inline text. A figure is an image with heading. In contrast to an image, a figure cannot be an inline element, hence it does not make sense to define it as a substitution. __ http://docutils.sourceforge.net/docs/ref/rst/restructuredtext.html#substitution-definitions Günter -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sphinx-users" group.
