reftex support for figures

reftex support for figures

[Ken Mankoff]

Hi,

Org + reftex works for me for citations and equations but not figures.

I assume equation support works because I write equations inside \begin{align} environments and have actual LaTeX code for \label{eq:foo}. But Figures are in Org syntax:

#+CAPTION: Foo
#+LABEL: fig:foo
[[./foo.png]]

And when I try to insert a figure reference with Reftex, none are found.

Does anyone have Reftex support working with Org figures?

Thanks,

  -k.

It seems like RefTeX might be able to do it via the "xr" package and external references, where it is searching the exported LaTeX version of the document:

http://www.xemacs.org/Documentation/packages/html/reftex_3.html#SEC35

This means that labels wouldn't be found until after export, but that seems like a minor inconvenience. 

  -k.
