Figure numbers not starting at 1

Post by mvhareta »

Hie

I have a problem with referencing. My references are starting from the LIST OF FIGURES and in the text i end up having number 11 as the first one. I want my references in the text to start from number 1 and continue being numbered in the order of appearance in the text.

Pliz help me, I am stuck. I am writting a disserattion and i am using the book class. i am using lyx version 2.0.0

Recommended reading 2024:

LaTeXguide.org • LaTeX-Cookbook.net • TikZ.org

NEW: TikZ book now 40% off at Amazon.com for a short time.

And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p

Figure numbers not starting at 1

Are they starting from 11 or from 1.1? Starting from 1.1 is normal for books, but you can change that with \numberwithin from the amsmath package.

Any further advice will require a Infominimal working example.
