Hi
How to change my Table caption numbering for Appendix section to Table A.1 or A-1?
However, the numbering A-1 shows up in my List of Tables . Did i miss out something?

Hello,
You're right, table and figures in appendix doesn't follow numbering rules, however you can simply fix this by adding the following rules in a custom CSS stylesheet:
Code: Select all
*[class ~= "map/map"][numbering ^= 'deep-chapter-scope'] *[class ~= "topic/topic"][topicrefclass ~= "bookmap/appendix"] *[class ~= "topic/table"] > caption > .table--title-label:after {
content: " " counter(chapter, upper-latin) "-" counter(tablecount) " ";
}
*[class ~= "map/map"][numbering ^= 'deep-chapter-scope'] *[class ~= "topic/topic"][topicrefclass ~= "bookmap/appendix"] *[class ~= "topic/fig"] > figcaption > .fig--title-label:after {
content: " " counter(chapter, upper-latin) "-" counter(figcount) " ";
}
I added an issue in our tracking system to add these rules in the default stylesheets.
Regards,
Julien
