[comp.text.tex] Bad Cross-Referencing in LaTeX

habibi@tasman.cc.utas.edu.au (05/16/91)

Hi,
What is the cure of bad cross-referencing in latex?
I use the article style. At the end of section 2, I have several figures
which are labeled (after running latex) as Figure 1, Figure 2 etc.(whereas it
is more logical if they were labeled as Figure 2.1 .....)


Now, in the first section of the article, I have a reference
to the figure which is labeled by LaTeX as Figure 3,
but the result of this \ref{..} comes up as 2.1 !!!!
(Note : I don't get the cross-referencing right in report style either)

Any suggestions?
Thanks
