Dear all,

I have an odd problem with the numbering of tables. The document I've written includes an Appendix with tables and figures. The numbering for the tables omits A.2 and jumps directly from Table A.1 to A.3 and then continues on normally, A.4 etc. This only occurs for tables and not for figures. I'm using Lyx 1.4.1 for Mac btw.

Does anyone have an idea how I could fix this?
This happens if you have two captions inside a float.  (Which may
be a valid thing to do, for example when having two numbered
tables side-by-side.)

This sometimes happens accidentally like this:
1. You insert a table float. The empty paragraph inside the new float
  is of type "caption"
2. During editing, the caption paragraph is split by pressing enter.
   Now there are two paragraphs in there, both of type "caption".
   Perhaps one is the real caption and the other contains the table.

The paragraph containing the table (or figure) inside a float should
not be of the "caption" type.
