Problem Citing a Definition

Problem Citing a Definition

[Kip Warner]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 586 bytes --]

Hey list,

I am trying to cite a definition typeset with a
\startdefinition[definition:foo] and \stopdefinition pair. I am doing
this by using a  \in{definition}[definition:foo]. That works, but in
the text I just see linkable text "definition". 

I'd like it to be more descriptive of the physical location in the
book, e.g. "foo in section 10.2". It was my impression according to the
manual that it was suppose to already do that, or am I not using \in
correctly?

The result of the \in command depends on the referenced object,
when you refer to a section or enumeration you get the number of
the section or enumeration but when you refer to something without
a number you get the stored text etc., e.g. \textreference[foo]{This is the text!}
print “This is the text!”.

For enumerations, floats etc. you can use the section number as prefix for
the objects own counter but there is no way AFAIK to get way you described.

I tried using \in{page \at{definition:foo}}[definition:foo], but it
would look better with the section number prefixed instead. How would I
go about doing that?
