How to config typst files so that:
(i) the first Figure in Chapter 5 is numbered as “Figure 5.1”;
(ii) the first Figure in Chapter 6 is numbered as “Figure 6.1”;
(iii) the First Table in Chapter 6 is numbered as “Table 6.1”
(iv) the seventh Table in Chapter 7 is numbered as “Table 7.7”
Now, I have all tables numbered from 1 to end, for example Table 2.1, Table 2.2, … Table 3.34 … whilst the prefix X of “X.Y” changes, not in accordance with Chapter number. Now it works this way: if a figure is the third figure in the entire series, and it appears in Chapter 3, whilst the first and second figure appear in Chapter 1, Typst assumes Chapter 3 is Chapter 2.
The last number “Y” of X.Y is the sequential number of the the total series.
The prefix of “2” for Table 2.1 is not because of Chapter 2.
The prefix of “3” for Table 3.34 is not because of Chapter 3. It is Chapter 9.
The prefix of “2” for Figure 2.9 is not because of Chapter 2. It is Chapter 7.
I want a set of sequential number for Table in a chapter. I want a set of sequential number for Figure in the same chapter.
When the chapter changes, the number (the count) starts afresh together with the chapter number.
Here’s an initial solution. If you need further help, please create a new topic and link to this old post.
Code
// Use a small page for testing
#set page(height: 400pt, width: 240pt, margin: 15pt)
#let part-figure = figure.where(kind: "part")
#show part-figure: set figure(numbering: "I", supplement: [Part])
#show part-figure: it => page({
set align(center + horizon)
set text(3em, weight: "black")
context [Part #numbering("I", ..counter(part-figure).get())]
parbreak()
it.caption.body
})
/// Start a new part and write the part title in a standalone page
#let part-page(body) = figure({}, kind: "part", caption: body)
