Cross references to images

Post by dbugger »

Hello guys! First post here!

I have a problem and I hope someone here can help me :)

I dont know how to make a reference to an image I have aded inside a float box. I want to make it so that if I write "as you can see in image 3", the number changes if I add more pictures before. Can someone give me some pointers, please?

Thanks!

Hi,

use a figure environment and have a look at cross references.

Insert Label (by menu item or icon) in the figure caption. Name it. In the place where you want to refer the figure, insert cross-reference (by menu item or icon). Select the label name you just entered.

That's all
