Question

In org-mode, I have defined a figure+caption like this:

#+CAPTION: My great figure
#+LABEL: fig:myfigure
[[myfigure.png]]

How do I write “See figure [myfigure]”? I’ve found the following syntax:

See figure \ref{fig:myfigure}

but this looks ugly in the source file. In particular, you cannot use it for actually jumping to the figure.

With a very recent org-mode, you can use #+name:, see:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/62644/focus=62646

#+CAPTION: My great figure
#+LABEL: fig:myfigure
#+name: fig:myfigure
[[test.png]]

See figure [[fig:myfigure][test]].

This works for me to jump from the link , but has no effect when exporting, I’m afraid…
