Hi Jörg, The \placefigure command knows more optional things: \placefigure [left, right, here, top, bottom, inleft, inright, inmargin, margin, leftmargin, rightmargin, leftedge, rightedge, innermargin, outermargin, inneredge, outeredge, inner, outer, line, high, low, fit, page, opposite, always, force, tall, reset, line, height, depth] [ref,..] {caption} {\externalfigure[name][options]} So you need to add [anapler] as the reference before the caption. A good startingpoint for such problems is the texshow utility. To start it type at the command line texmfstrat texshow. Otherwise if you use the SciTe editor it is incorporated under the Help-button or just hit F1. Kind regards Willi Jörg Hagmann wrote:
Dear list members,
I can't figure out how to refer to figures. In the setuparea I have e.g.:
\useexternalfigure[anapler][anaplerosis][width=\textwidth]
In the body I had:
\placefigure{Acetyl-CoA stimuliert die anaplerotische Reaktion etc...}{\externalfigure[anapler]}
In the text:
(\in{Abb.}[anapler]
pdf output gave Abb. ??
I then added a reference to \placefigure:
\placefigure[anapler1]{text ...}[anapler]
and
(\in{Abb.}[anapler1]
Same result, i.e. ??
I then thought that maybe, although this seems unlikely, "[fig:..] is needed, as in the examples in the manuals. I replaced the reference with [fig:anapler], same result.
As so far practically nothing worked the first time, but I always managed to find the error after some time, I kept staring at the manuals and my tex file. It didn't help. I hope somebody has the answer. Thank you very much, Jörg.
