I'm searching for a way to automatically set labels depending on in which chapter the labeled item is in. Something like a variable that contains the current chapter number, is what I'm looking for. I want to use a selfmade section, that is automatically labeled, so that I can reference it by:[chapternumber . sectionnumber] (In which the sectionnumber is the by me given number). It should look something like this, if \currentchapter contained the current chapter number:
Code: Select all
\documentclass[11pt,titlepage,a4]{report}
\usepackage{hyperref}
\newcommand{\ownsection}[1]{\section{Definition #1}\label{\currentchapter.#1}}
\begin{document}
\chapter{Exponential Equations}
\ownsection{1}
something
\chapter{Next}
Exponential Equations are defined as in \hyperref[1.1]{Definition 1}.
\end{document}Chapter 1
Exponential Equations
Definition 1
something
Chapter 2
Next
Exponential Equations are defined as in Definition 1.
I'm looking forward to any help
.Thanks a lot!
