Cross reference to caption in text box

[scheij]

My document contains jpg images with captions for each. These pairs ar
both inside a text box. I would like to insert a cross reference wit
hyperlink to the "Figure label and number only" into the body text o
the document (outside the textbox). However, the references do no
appear when I try to insert them. Any suggestions to solve thi
problem would be appreciated. Thanks

Hi Scheij,

My document contains jpg images with captions for each. These pairs are
both inside a text box. I would like to insert a cross reference with
hyperlink to the "Figure label and number only" into the body text of
the document (outside the textbox). However, the references do not
appear when I try to insert them.

Anything in a document's drawing layer is not "visible" to the
cross-referencing system. Convert the textboxes to frames (you'll find a
button in the Textbox tab of the Format dialog box) and the problem should
be resolved.
