Referencing a figure

Referencing a figure

[Devendra Ghate]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 730 bytes --]

I have written a macro to include figures. I pass the label name and
the caption as the two arguments. But when I try to refer to the figure,
it shows ??.

Surely, my macro does not define the figure label as intended by me.
What am I doing wrong? Also, while trying to debug this problem, I tried
using *\version[temporary]* to see the labels as suggested in the Context
manual (chapter on Cross References (page 207) of cont-ini.pdf). But it
didn't show many the label of the figure.

MWE:

\useMPlibrary[dum]
\unprotect
\define[2]\dincludefigure{%
    \placefigure[fig:#1]{#2}{\externalfigure[dummy][width=10cm]}%
  }%
\protect

\starttext
   \dincludefigure{one}{A figure}
   I am refering to \in{Figure}[fig:one].
\stoptext

If you specify only one optional argument of \placefloat, then
leftmost in the list is assumed, i.e. the location. To get around
this, either specify a location or add empty brackets if you’re
content with the default:

    \define[2]\dincludefigure{%
      \placefigure[][fig:#1]{#2}{\externalfigure[dummy][width=10cm]}%
    }%

Try \placefigure[here][fig:myfigure]{A beautiful circle}{

When \placefigure is used with only one optional argument, the optional 
argument is interpreted as the placement specifier (here, left, right, 
top, bottom), rather than the label.

Referencing a Figure

[Troy Henderson]

I am trying to reference a figure, and the results are not as
expected.  Here is my snippet.

\placefigure[fig:myfigure]{A beautiful circle}{
   \startMPcode
      draw fullcircle scaled 72;
   \stopMPcode
}
Isn't Figure \in[fig:myfigure] beautiful?


When this code renders, the text says "Isn't Figure ?? beautiful?"
How can I get the correct figure number?

Thanks,

Troy
