Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ Reference to subfigures

[Klaushh]

Hey dudes

My problem occurs when iam referencing to a subfigure with a number depth of more than 2. E.g. my main figure enviroment is called 2.4.1, and the subfigers are 2.4.1(a) and 2.4.1(b). However, when referencing to one of the to subfig-labels, LaTeX writes: Figure 2.4(a). Is there any way to adjust this setting so it writes: Figure 2.4.1(a)

Tanks

Which package did you used to typeset the subfigures (I'm aware of three of them) and where have you placed the \label command?

I think the best is giving us a minimal but complete LaTeX example code which shows the problem, so we need neither to guess nor to take a look at the crystal ball.

Iam not sure iam following you in which package you mean. My preamble only has this command dealing with the subfigure package...

Code: Select all

\usepackage{subfigure} 

This is the figure as written in latex code:

Code: Select all

\begin{figure}[H]
  \begin{center}
    \subfigure[Pressure areas.]{
     \includegraphics[width=0.85\textwidth]{Parts/Model/pics/Slider_Areas.eps}\label{fig:Areas}
    \subfigure[Topview]{
     \includegraphics[width=0.45\textwidth]{Parts/Model/pics/SliderTop.eps}\label{fig:SliderTop}}
    \subfigure[Bottomview ]{
     \includegraphics[width=0.45\textwidth]{Parts/Model/pics/SliderBelow.eps}\label{fig:SliderBelow}
}
\end{center}
\caption{Poppet.}
\label{fig:PoppetValveSubfig}
\end{figure}

When refferring to the first figure \ref{fig:Areas}. Latex only writes figure 2.2(a) instead of figure 2.2.2(a) ...

Hope this helps understanding the problem

With subfigure you are using an obsolete package [1]. Choose one of its predecessors and try again after reading the corresponding package manual. If the problem persists, feel free to ask further questions.

Hi again
Thanks to localghost, your answer helped me understand the problem:
I replaced the subfigure package with the subfig package instead. This involves using \subfloat instead of \subfigure, and solved problem. References to subfigures are now correct.
Thanks again
