Stephen.
The xref is pointing to a specific ID assigned to it, so each time it is called it will always link to that xref.
To accomplish what you are attempting I believe you would need three unique insets, each referring to the respective illustration.
If all three are in the same chapter why not insert it the first time and then reference the section containing the first inset in the other instances?

Hi,

Have you seen this? I have a text inset that I insert into the same host document (chpt 3) three times. It has an internal cross-reference to a figure. When I update the host document the cross-references in the text insets all show the same Figure #. Instead of seeing see Fig. 3.1 and later see Fig. 3.2, they all show see Fig 3.1.

The FM knowledgebase does say that a document’s external cross-references do not update correctly if the document targeted by the cross-reference is opened by a different user on the network.

I still don’t quite get it.

Your comments are appreciated,
