Dear All, My xml docbook file contains a number of graphics. Some are regular figures, some are edgefigures. I have two questions in this respect. A. referring to floats \placeedgefigure [\xmlatt{#1}{id}] {\xmlfirst{#1}{/caption}} {\framed[frame=off]{\setlayer[graphics]{\xmlfirst{#1}{/imageobject}}}} \definefloat[edgefigure][figure] \setupfloat[edgefigure] [leftmargindistance=-\innercombitotal,rightmargindistance=-\outercombitotal, default={outer,low,long}, criterium=.65\textwidth,numbering=no] <mediaobject id="fig:cow" role="edgefigure"> <imageobject> <imagedata scale="500" fileref="cow.jpg"/> </imageobject> </mediaobject> I now wonder how to refer to these floats. That is, referring through <xref linkend="cow"/> is not difficult to implement, but for some reason the mapping of the id is not that obvious. I tried it like this: \startxmlsetups xml:mediaobject:edgefigure \placeedgefigure [\xmlatt{#1}{id}] {\xmlfirst{#1}{/caption}} {\framed[frame=off]{\setlayer[graphics]{\xmlfirst{#1}{/imageobject}}}} \stopxmlsetups The log file says: references : unknown reference [][fig:cow] The reference is not solved. B. edgefigures and regular figures The document contains two types of figures. \xmlsetsetup{#1}{mediaobject[@role='fig']}{xml:mediaobject:fig} \xmlsetsetup{#1}{mediaobject[@role='edgefigure']}{xml:mediaobject:edgefigure} I have noticed that when <mediaobject> contains both the attributes id and role, such as the cow example, the figure is considered a regular figure automatically and will not typeset as an edgefigure.
