Sure, once you have the auto-numbering you can use it with whatever object you need numbering. I used oleghbond's ref examples because they didn't require me to go spelunking for lightweight, copyright free images.
The next step would be to add "namespaces" to the JS macro for captions, figures, references, etc. since you probably don't them share the same numbering base. Maybe a little later. -- Mark On Saturday, December 8, 2018 at 3:44:25 PM UTC-8, TonyM wrote: > > Mark, > > This is looking good as far as reference counts are concerned.
