Hi all,

I have the question how to put a (pure) colon into a figure or table caption.

\let\floatcaptionsuffix=: \placefigure[fig:cow]{cow}{\externalfigure[cow]}

produces: Figure 1.: cow

What I want is: Figure 1: cow

i.e. the colon without the additionally dot. Does somebody know a solution for this simple problem?
