Cross Reference Auto Number

Post by Anna_Dev »

Hi!
Related to cross reference to Auto Numbers, I have an issue that I'm struggling with.
I have created a style for autonumbering of tables, which works fine. I want all my table headings to start with a capital letter, e.g. "Table 1, XXX". However when I want to create a crossreference in a text, I would like the table to be written with lower case, e.g. "see table 1".
- Is it possible to create some conversion, that the capital letters always should be converted into lower case when making cross reference?
- If not, can I create an autonumber format that allows me to write Table manually before the autonumbering starts? Now I'm only able to write after the autonumber.
I'm using the style below:

p.p_3figure
{
font-weight: bold;
color: #000000;
font-family: Arial;
page-break-after: avoid;
margin-top: 30px;
mc-auto-number-format: 'F: {b}Figure {Gn+}. {b}';

You might be able to do this using the text-transform property on your xref style.

Code: Select all

MadCap|xref
	{
		text-transform: lowercase;
	}

That's going to apply lowercase to your entire xref though, so it might be too blunt if you're also including the table description in your xref.
