They are used when multiple autonumbers exist in a string. Example: You have a TableTitle paragraph format that displays as Table 4-2. It uses the following autonumber string: Table <$chapnum>-< ><n+> In the example, the < > is the placeholder, which might represent the autonumber value of figures. Since you want to leave the figure value unchanged, you must tell FM to ignore it. The common description for that < > is "placeholder". ============== The FrameMaker 9.0 User Guide refers to auto-numbering building blocks as "counters." It's been the term used going back many FrameMaker releases.
