Re: Incrementing piggybacking sets of numbered lists

[Thomas Neuburger <thomasn@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Bart,

Use separate series labels for the figures and steps.

Check your copy of my book -- the explanation of autonumbering (p. 225 ff) 
discusses series labels (p. 226) with a figure caption example that's just 
what you want --

   F:Figure <n+>.\t

HTH,
