FrameMaker 8.0 TOC building blocks

But, if I use the <$paranum>, I get the word "Figure" with it too.
I want to eliminate the word Figure for the LOF generated file.
I only want it to show: #-# (U) Title……I-I (example)

Thanks
Brenda

In the LOF file, on the LOF reference page, try chaninging the <$paranumonly> building block to <$paranum>. The <$paranumonly> building block is designed to pick up only the numbers (and any separators between the digits) and omit any other following content produced by the autonumbering format. In other words, it is specifically designed to *eliminate* the kind of extra characters you are trying to add. <$paranum>, by contrast, picks up the entire autonumbering string.

My client uses Windows XP and FrameMaker 8.0

I need to include specially marked reference for each of my titles (i.e., # (U) Title).

Currently have in the Paragraph Design – Numbering:

F:Figure\ <$chapnum> \+<n+>\s#(U)\s#

Which shows on my page as:

Figure 1-1 (U) This is a figure title style

As for the LOF generated file – View – Reference Pages:

Currently have:

<$paranumonly><$paratext> ………………………..<$chapnum>-<<$pagenum>

Which shows on my page as:

1-1This is a figure title style…………………………….1-1

I want it to say:

1-1 (U) This is a figure title style…………………………1-1


Question:

How do I achieve this with out typing the (U) with my title in the body text of the document.
I want to have FM do this automatically. Any help or idea are greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Brenda
