Re: [Docutils-users] Equation numbering in LaTeX writer

[Brecht M. <bre...@mo...>]

Hello,

I've also been thinking about figure and table numbering. Note that 
there's already the numfig Sphinx package that could prove useful:

The builder should also have access to the element ID's, in case it 
wants to take care of numbering itself. This is already working well 
for section numbers.

I would not include "Fig. #". The backend should add also the "Fig." part.
