Fltering the Reference Window when inserting a cross-reference

Post by Thomas Green »

When I insert a cross-reference to an auto-title, the edit Reference Window lists all the auto-titles. That includes all chapter and section headings plus in my case figure captions. For a long book, that's a very long list, and finding the right element is a chore.

Is there a way to filter the list so that it only displays auto-titles from one stream, in my case the Figure Caption stream? Or can it be filtered by paragraph style, which might be even better?

Notes: (1) I know that the list can be filtered by a text string, but I don't see how that would help me.

(2) Also, I know that tags can be applied to auto-titles and then the list can filtered by tags, but that's extra work.

(3) I also know that Images can have associated titles, but that's no help because some of the figures are not images but pieces of text that need a caption (for instance, a poem can have a caption).
