Numbering figures - caption problem

A

arndis

HI.

I am working with a Microsoft word for mac 2011, version 14.0.0.

I am trygin to add captions with numbering to my figures.
I can add captions to figures 1 and 2 and get the right numbers but whe
I try numbering figure 3 it always says figure 2. So every figur afte
number 2 is number 2.

Can somebody help me ?

Best regard

I am having the same problem with numbering too. But in my case it has stopped at 8 rather than 2. I figured out that in case you used more than one figure in a page and most certainly placed beside each other, so the MS wordwill get confused numbering them and to which to give number 8 and which to be numbered 9 (in your case 2 and 3) that's why they should be some how separated if you intend to caption them in same level or to put one over theother.

If you are adding captions to objects whose Text Wrapping is *not* "In line with
text," note that the captions end up in text boxes, and the numbering will
depend on the relative positions of the text box *anchors* in the text.

To see the anchor (when an object is selected), select that option in the Word
Options dialog box (File tab | Options | Advanced if you are using Word 2010).
