legrand-orange-book /label

Post by siemj »

The Legrand Orange Book template is an excellent template, but after one hour of fiddling with it, I came acrosse a problem.

it looks like when the following code is written in a chapter, the reference sticks to 1.1.

Code: Select all

\begin{figure}[h]
\label{fig:figure}
\centering\includegraphics[scale=0.5]{afigure}
\end{figure}

\begin{figure}[h]
\label{fig:figure2}
\centering\includegraphics[scale=0.5]{anotherfigure}
\end{figure}

As you can see in figure \ref{fig:figure} and figure \ref{fig:figure2}.
The output is:
picture

picture

As you can see in figure 1.1 and figure 1.1.
This is not the case with footnotes for example. Referencing footnotes always succeeds.

I suck.
Writing a label after the caption inside the figure-element solves the issue.

Welcome to the forum!

Yes, that's correct: the \caption command increases the figure number and places an anchor for referencing via label. So the \caption command has always to come before the \label.
