FrameMaker 9 - Autonumbering of Tables/Figures not working correctly

Question

I have a multi-chapter book. My autonumber paragraph definitions for "Figure Title" and Table Title" are:
     F:Figure <$chapnum>-<n+>
     T:Table <$chapnum>-<n+>
My other autonumber tags are:
     C:Chapter <n+>
     A:Appendix <A+>:
     L:<a=1>)\t
     L:<a+>)\t
     N:<n=1>.\t
     N:<n+>.\t
     •\t
     NOTE:
     Syntax:\t
     Output:\t
My numbering formats in the file and the book file are:
Chapter 1:
     Volume tab: Volume1 # 1
     Chapter tab: Chapter # 1
     Page tab: First Page # 1
     Paragraph tab: Restart Paragraph Numbering
Chapter 2 (etc.):
     Volume tab: Volume1 # 1
     Chapter tab: Continue Numbering From Previous Chapter in Book
     Page tab: First Page # 1
     Paragraph tab: Continue Numbering From Previous Chapter in Book
What I get when I update the book is:
In Chapter 1:
     Figure 1-1
     Figure 1-2
     Table 1-1
In Chapter 2:
     Figure 2-3
     Table 2-2
In Chapter 3:
     Figure 3-4
     Table 3-3
It's obvious I'm doing something wrong, but I can't for the life of me figure out what. Does anyone have any ideas?

Answer 1

You didn't say how you want it to be, but FM appears to be numbering exactly
how you've set it. The number before the dash is the chapter number and
continues numbering from the previous chapter in the book. The number to the
right of the dash is also numbering (as a paragraph) from the previous
chapter in the book.
If you want the figure number (the part after the dash) to restart in each
chapter, you need to go to the book file, right click and choose Numbering.
Then set  "Restart paragraph numbering" on the Paragraph tab. This will
restart the number after the dash to 1 at the beginning of each chapter.
I would also add that it is confusing to the reader to have Table 1-1 come
after Figure 1-2. Check out this document, "The Case for Simple Numbering:"
