Hi Bob,

unfortunately, your suggestion did not work. Obviously a figure is glued to one page, it cannot be spread on more than one. Therefore, the only thing that comes to my mind would be to reset the figure number by -1. Is this possible?

Hi Bernhard,

This is more of a DocBook issue than an Oxygen XML issue.

Currently DocBook 5.1 does not support subfigures, but version 5.2 under development will support a new element named <formalgroup> which can contain one or more "formal" elements (table, figure, example, equation).  That would allow for subfigures.  However, there is currently no release date for DocBook 5.2, nor do the stylesheets support that element yet.

For the current releases, I can only suggest a workaround.  Put two mediaobjects in a figure element (they are allowed), and give each mediaobject a <caption> element whose para includes  "a." or "b." and include subtitles there if needed.    Maybe someone else has a better suggestion.

The Docbook definitive Guide does not mention subfigures.

The Docbook xsl complete Guide does not either.

I have a figure too large that the text can only be read by magnifying
glass. So I wand two parts of it on two pages. But I cannot see how to
number it correctly Fig. 1a and Fig. 1b. Can please point me in correct
direction?

Many thanks

Bernhard
