hi, all!

i have been trying to produce "Figure 1." in the figure caption of my document using mkiv and i just couldn't. i've searched through the ntg-context archives and the net for solutions but none seems to work. however, when i try the solutions posted (e.g. \setupcaption[figure][stopper={.}]) using XeConTeXt or MKII, i get the result i need. can anybody tell me how to go about this in mkiv?

also, how do you go about producing a "Table 1.1" or a "Table 1-1" in the captions? couldn't find the answer in the manuals or in the web. any help would be greatly appreciated.

in mkiv it's \setupcaption[figure][numberstopper=.]) (we have numbers, prefixes and more and all have gotten similar keys) it's good to know that all control over such numbers has changes a bit but is more flexible now (conversion, prefixing, separators, etc) you can control such thingies with processors \defineprocessor[demo][color=red,style=\bfd] \setupcaption[figure][numberstopper=demo->.,numberconversion=Characters] \starttext \chapter{first} \section{first} \placefigure{}{} \placefigure{}{} \stoptext (but somehow there is a bleed to the page number rendering that i need to resolve) ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
