Why does figure numbering re-start in each of my chapters?

For some reason, figure numbering just stopped spanning chapters in my book.
That is, the first figure in each chapter is labeled Figure 1. All chapters use same
paragraph definitions for "Figure Caption," and that paragraph definition includes
autonumbering. And when I generate an LOF file for the book, FM has no trouble
finding them.
This is a recent development because all the figures in the book used to be
numbered correctly. I just can't figure out what changed.
My figures are built this way: start with an anchored frame, Import>File , then
below the imported graphic frane itself, I insert a text frame and put the figure
caption in it.
I have never fiddled with any text flows in the book -- I just use whatever
defaultes FM gave me
As I said, this scheme used to work. Is there any way to explicitly
tell FM to use continuous numbering?
Cheers,
JP

Error,
I still can't get figure numbers to continue but I did determine the following behavior.
If I set numbering of a chapter via the book file to this:
Chapter: Continue numbering
Page: Continue numbering
Paragraph:Continue numbering
and then update the book file with Edit -> Update References, then heading numbering continues from the previous chapter (for example, chapter 3 starts with heading 3.6) but figure numbering restarts at 1.
If I reset numbering of a chapter via the book file like this:
Chapter: Continue numbering
Page: Continue numbering
Paragraph:Restart numbering
the heading numbers immediately revert to 3.1, 3.2, 3.3 and the figure numbers remain at 1, 2, 3.
This is too frustrating. I can't spend any more time trying to figure this out so I'm going to switch to a <$chapnum>-<n+> format for figure numbers (and probably for tables too). I used to use that format at another company. At least it gives the user a clue as to what chapter the figure is in.
Thanks for the suggestions.
Yours,
Michael F

AVG reports these sqlite cookies each time firefox starts. they usually belong to tribalfusion or some other tracker. How do I block them in the first place. I thought firefox is a safe browser. Did not have this problem until I upgraded to 3.6.

Why does ical print out staring the week on tuesday?
Maybe the week starts one day later for the Yosemite dev team, but certainly not in my neck of the woods.
The actual print out also looks nothing like the new matt and 'flat' graphic style of Yosemite.
I suggest you start on monday next week and sort these issues out.

For many people that is the correct option. If you think it should be different, tell Apple, as they aren't listening here.

Why does Firefox trigger the UAC warning each time I open it?

I design websites and test them across most browsers. We use Windows 7 operating system, and only Firefox triggers the User Account Control message on our test computers, which is a major annoyance when opening instances of Firefox in rapidfire order as web designers do. Is there a way to disable it? The UAC is not triggered by Opera, Safari, Chrome and we have made sure we have not checked properties-compatibility tab - "Run this program as administrator" in both the Firefox.exe file as well as any desktop shortcuts - as advised by several people and contributors to Firefox forums. But that doesn't have an effect. Each time we test, we get the Windows 7 UAC message. We've written to Microsoft several times and they have not replied. We thought perhaps you'd have a solution that actually works.
Thanks

I reinstalled first without deleting everything and then as you suggested. The program now comes up ok when I log in as administrator. However, it is the only program I have that suddenly won't work as a non-administrator without requesting that the administrator approve it to make changes to my computer. I have looked at the permissions and they are the same as for WordPerfect, for example. I don't expect that this program makes changes to my computer that will bother any other users.
Why does Windows 7 think that Firefox is going to change the computer for other users?

Why does my noise margin start off at 6.3dB then d...

Basically every time my modem is reset, the noise margin is 6.3dB and then after that, each day it drops off another 0.1-0.3 until it gets to 5.4dB why is that ? Obviously The reason I ask is, if it gets too low it will reset my modem by itself won't it? Could the modem be the reason.

this is what i mean guys, i know that one of them is 5.9 and the others 5.8 but why is there so much of a difference
non interleaved- http://gyazo.com/40d6ce989f2e6aad93e2ac53d0391fb5

these are also pretty close and look at the difference

non interleaved- http://gyazo.com/986ee7fafc206a50d368afbeda9150b9
the bottom two are slightly different but why such a big gap?
why when none interleaved the max is a lot lower?
if my sync speed is lower then why does my noise margin not increase rather than decrease and not rise back up?

Why does the same clip play differently each time I play it?

Playing a flash animation clip in Adobe Media Player plays differently each time I play it. I'm looking at animation we made that has a left to right move. Sometimes it plays smoothly, other times it stutters, but the stutters happen at different points each time I play it, and the amount of stuttering changes each time I play it. I'm trying to decide if the file is acceptable to post on the web, so I'm playing the same 34 second file from my hard drive, each time in succession, yet each play is different. Boy, if you can help me with this I would sure appreciate it, as it is driving me crazy. (The same thing happens on other flash players). And no, the file isn't haunted...

Hello and thank you for trying to help me out. When I click on the itunes icon on my desktop, it does the preparing to install.... on my laptop, when I click on the icon, itunes opens automatically. I really can't figure out why one does this and the other does not.
Apparently, I was not having trouble connecting to the itunes store like I thought. Many other people complain of the same problem I had---the connecting to the itunes store progress bar goes halfway, stops, and then all I see is a blank white page that says itunes store. Well, after playing around, and clicking on VIEW and SHOW sidebar browser, I was able to see the itunes store! Yay!! It was so simple, it was unreal that so many people are having the same problem I thought I was having, connecting, when all that was was a VIEW issue.
As far as my desktop doing the preparing to install, I don't get it. I have uninstalled itunes9 and redownloaded it, reinstalled it. Same problem. Preparing to install. No matter what itunes icon I click on, or even if I click ont he application itself from it's folder. Any ideas?
So just forget about my connection problem---it was not a problem after all. Yet one pc does preparing to install when the itunes icon is clicked on, and the other pc does not. Both are running windows vista home premium. One is a desktop, one a laptop. I can't figure it out.

Why Does Paragraph Numbering Differ Between WYSIWYG and WebHelp?

Howdy. I've returned to a relatively simple and small (300+ topic) project using RH7 7.03.001on my XP Professional Version 2002 SP3 PC. What's required and what shows in the Word source docs and RH7 (editor and preview modes) after import is, for example:
Steps To Accomplish
1.      Log on to the system.
2.      Select Administration view.
NOTE
Check for user already existing prior to creating a new account.
3.      <Click> the Add User button.
4.      …
But what WebHelp shows in the end user's IE6 SP2 browser is:
Steps To Accomplish
1.      Log on to the system.
2.      Select Administration view.
NOTE
Check for user already existing prior to creating a new account.
4.      <Click> the Add User button.
5.      …
My observation is that RH7 inserts an <li style="list-style: none"> and </li> pair around every NOTE paragraph group in the generated file, which increments the step number objectionably. (Though a "small" project, I am not going to hand-delete these though that solves the problem...)
Hmm, do I need two step numbering styles -- one that starts at 1 (pre-NOTE) and one that does not restart (post-NOTE)? The Bullets and Numbering dialogue doesn't offer either option, at least via RH7's Format / Styles route. And would that help anyway on the second and subsequent Note groups that might occur? Just tried it -- no difference. Auggh. I've wrestled with styles and formats a bit but obviously don't understand -- or is this an RH7 bug or feature? (I would expect WYSIWYG to be just that...)
I have attached a PDF describing my problem in more detail, though I realize this is not the preferred method...
Thanks all!
Steve

Thank you, Willam, for your prompt, thoughtful and complimentary reply. I'm somewhat relieved that I haven't missed something obvious but concerned that more effort will have to be applied.
As I indicated, I do not plan to fix this by hand. Instead, I will now do what I'd done two and a half years ago when using RH X5 and write code to examine each imported RH source file and apply this fix (using MS Access, my tool of comfort). The previous effort was to insert the Javascript that implemented search highlighting, developed by college student Calvin Ly and so well documented by Peter Grainge among others. Since then, RH7 has solved that oversight. So, perhaps RH8 has done the same for this one.
Meanwhile, my comment and question:
1.      If WYSIWYG is to be trusted for a commercially mature product, then if not true I'd consider the product to have a bug (notwithstanding someone coming forth with a fix that doesn’t require postprocessing!).
2.      Does RH8 exhibit this same paragraph-numbering discrepancy? (My customer plans to purchase RH so "their people" can also work the project. This could become problematic, and not just because once converted, as another post points out, the RH8 project cannot be used by RH7. Whee!)
Thanks, all, for reading. Please keep adding to the body of knowledge!

Why does Vine Server not start with this script and work with the other?

I have the preferences of Vine Server set to start/run automatically when opening the programme.
If I double click the icon it works. Opens and starts.
If I use
activate application "Vine Server"
it opens but does not start.
If I use:
tell application "Finder"
activate
open application file "Vine Server.app" of folder "Vine Server 3" of folder "Applications" of startup disk
end tell
it opens and starts.
Anybody any idea as to why?
This seems to happen since I upgraded form 10.4 to 10.5.

Hello
Do you have multiple versions of Vine Server application, perhaps?
If so, that might cause the described behaviour.
You may try using full path to the current Vine Server application such as -
activate application "/Applications/Vine Server 3/Vine Server.app"
or -
tell application "/Applications/Vine Server 3/Vine Server.app" to activate

Why does Labview create a .vi for each global variables?

Hello,
I wrote an Labview application which use several global variables (almost 30 variables). All the variables are of variable type "single process". For each of these variables, Labview creates a vi.
For example, for the variable "_TS.Measures.channes", Labview creates a vi named "TS_'_TS.Measures.channels'.vi". Which means, I have almost 30 "name of variable".vi files: this is confusing!
All my VI are inside library (.llb). When I try to put the VI of a global variable in a library, Labview can't find them anymore.
May be can somebody explain me, why LabVIEW does create these VI and how is it possible to put them in a library.
Cheers,
Risotto

Hi everybody,
Thank you for your answers, I get a lot of informations.
Yes, I use the new shared variables in LabVIEW8, which I am using like sort of global constants. Now I am understanding what guys are telling me all this about global variables in LabVIEW7.1. Sorry, I forgot to say I was using LabvVIEW8.
I will have a look on the tutorial too.
But yet one point about the library collecting all the shared variables in the windows explorer and in the project explorer: When I create a shared variable in my LabVIEW project - for example "test1" as double/single process - the variable doesn't appear in my file directory, but it appears in the project explorer in a library (.lvlib).
When I drag/paste my shared variable on the block diagramm of my VI, then a file "Math_test1.vi" appears in my file directory. There is no extra .llb created to contain my shared variable vi.
If I drag/paste the file "Math_test1.vi" in the Math.llb (see picture), then the file is moved in the llb and disapeared from the directory.
If I created another shared variable "test2" as double/single process and put it on the VI, then LabVIEW creates2 files in the directory: "Math_test1.vi" and "Math_test2.vi". So that I get 2 vi for the "test1" variable now (one in the llb and one in the directory).
I use several library in the project explorer. But the library in the project explorer seems to create file with other extension (.lvlib) than the sdtandard LabVIEW library (.llb).
Cheers,
Risotto

Why does skypein numbers not allow receiving sms?

Does anyone have a definitive answer as to why skype has never done this, very useful function.
I AND MILLIONS OF OTHERS WOULD LOVE THIS SKYPE. WHY CAN YOU NOT PLEASE DO IT FOR GOODNESS SAKE!!!!
SMS IS EASIER THAN VOICE !!!!
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE

Does anyone have a definitive answer as to why skype has never done this, very useful function.
I don't have the definitive answer for your question. It is possible that Skype is not able to receive SMS messages because Skype does not operate a mobile phone carrier - or does not partner with mobile carriers in different countries, as Skype does with other non-mobile carriers for services we currently have. I was told in another part of these community forums that SMS messages can be received on German landlines, but this appears to be a rare thing compared to most of the world. Skype's numbers are usually set up to work like regular landline numbers or - in some countries - may be a special class of number (nomadic or VOIP, for example).
Subject to government regulations in the different countries, Skype would have to partner with mobile phone carriers in different countries, and then have the ability to issue Online Numbers that would appear to the telephone network to be either mobile numbers or special numbers that have the ability to receive SMS. Between the technical and legal hurdles Skype would have to go through, it is possible they are very happy with having the online numbers that work for receiving voice calls. (For some posting all over these forums, there are some countries that Skype users would be very happy to get an Online Number for voice calls - Canada comes to mind)
Approaching Skype Customer Support, instead of these community forums frequented mostly by other Skype users, may be a good thing. Then you might be able to get an answer from Skype directly. No guarantees, of course, but you'll never know if you don't try.
Good luck!

Why does my iPhone 4s start playing music when I connect to a bluetooth unit?

I have recently bought a new 4s and have attempted to use it with my Automedia handsfree bluetooth unit in the car. The phone worked fine with my previous (Android) phone, but whenever I receive a call on the 4s it starts playing music through the bluetooth unit as well as the telephone conversation. This does not happen when I make a call. Any suggestions on how I can stop the music playing? (The phone wont let me swap to the music player to put the music on hold either.) Any help greatly appreciated as this is really annoying.

I considered that too, but when I double clicked the home button to show what apps were running, there was nothing there. I just don't understand how anything would have opened because I hadn't touched my phone in several minutes.

Why does my Numbers app in iPad mini doesn't have any INPUT FORM tab every time I press the " " sign?

This is my first time using the Numbers App which I thought could organize my research data collection and at the same time speed up the summary and analysis of the data as well. However, I can't start on with it because I'm stuck with how to find the INPUT FORMS tab anywhere else in the screen. The tutorials instructed to tap the "+" button but in my app, after tapping the symbol it only adds new sheet, it doesn't show the "new sheet, new form" selection. I'm really confused and I want to know how to get it right. Please help me if I needed something to correct this

Hey lilianville!
I have an article here that seems to explain what you are trying to achieve:
Numbers for iOS (iPad): Enter data into a table cell
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH3370
Specifically, these are the steps that will help you complete your desired goal:
Note that it seems as if you would have to have a table created in order to enter forms as you desire. Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. Have a good one!
