Ordering and renumbering figures

Figures should be numbered in the order that they are linked to in the text. You cannot edit a figure's number directly, but you can change the order of your figures with the Move Up and Move down functions.

To reorder figures

  1. Right-click the figure you wish to move and choose Move Up or Move Down.
    The two figures exchange place and numbers, and any links to the figures in the text are updated automatically.

  2. Repeat 1. for any other figure that should be moved.

Renumbering

If have deleted a figure, you may need to renumber the remaining figures to ensure a continuous sequence.

To renumber figures

  1. Click the Figures heading in the outline.

  2. Click the Renumber button on the outline toolbar.
    The figures are renumbered in continuous sequence. Any links to figures in the text are updated automatically.
