Positioning Caption Under Run-in Figure

Hi, all.

I'm working in FM 10 in a Win 7 environment.

I have placed some tall, thin graphics in an anchored frame that is run into the paragraph and positioned Left on the page. The text flows down the right side of the graphic.

Everything works beautifully except I can't figure out how to keep the caption with the graphic. Sometimes the text is not as tall as the graphic, so I would have to use a series of returns to move the cursor down to beneath the anchored frame, and enter the caption there. This is do-able but clunky and prone to problems if the text is ever edited.

I therefore created a text frame inside the anchored frame and put the caption there, which works physically but breaks the hyperlinks to the cross-reference in the text "(See Figure X.") For the time being, I've deleted the x-refs, since they aren't really necessary in such an obvious page layout. (But one of my reviewers is absolutely going to say, "where's the 'See Figure X????' Be copnsistent! Consistency above all else!!")

How can I get a caption with working hyperlinks positioned directly under the anchored frame?

Thanks.
