Duplicate names in figure libraries

Duplicate names in figure libraries

[David Arnold]

Hans et al,

I have two figure libraries, figlibSection1.xml and  
figlibSection2.xml. In the first, I have:

<figure>
<file>sec1rat1.png</file>
<label>rat1</label>
<copyright>College of the Redwoods Mathematics Department</copyright>
<comment></comment>
</figure>

In the second, I have:

<figure>
<file>section2figs-mpgraph.1</file>
<label>rat1</label>
<copyright>College of the Redwoods Mathematics Department</copyright>
<comment></comment>
</figure>

Now, section1.tex does:

\usefigurebase[figures/figlibSection1]

And later:

\startbuffer[figure]
\startcombination[3*1]
   {\externalfigure[rat1][width=.2\textwidth]}{(a)}
   {\externalfigure[rat2][width=.2\textwidth]}{(b)}
   {\externalfigure[rat3][width=.2\textwidth]}{(c)}
\stopcombination
\stopbuffer

\placefigure
[][fig:rat]
{The calculator attempts to draw a continuous function when it  
shouldn't.}
{\getbuffer[figure]}


Section2.tex does:

\usefigurebase[figures/figlibSection2]

And later:

\placefigure
[][fig:rat1]
{The numerator is zero at $x=-2$. This is an $x$-intercept of the  
graph. The denominator is zero at $x=3$. This is a vertical asymptote  
of the graph.}
{\externalfigure[rat1]}

All is fine if I compile section1.tex and section2.tex separately.  
But I have chapter6.tex with:

\startproduct chapter6

\project book

\startbodymatter

\setupheadnumber[chapter][5]

\chapter[chap:6]{Rational Functions}

\component chapter6/section1 %Introducing Rational Functions

\component chapter6/section2  %Zeros and Asymptotes

\stopbodymatter

\stopproduct

When I compile this, the rat1 in section2.tex uses the rat1 meant for  
section1.tex instead. Any I can fix this other than giving unique  
names to everything?

Hi David,

unless Hans releases some magic, there is no way than to have different 
labels in both files.

we can consider adding a <rl:collection>somename</rl:collection> element  so that one has to use somename:somelabel to locate a graphic

Hans et al,

I'm afraid I don't know enough xml to understand this.

How would something lik this change with your suggested strategy?

<figure>
<file>sec4twoa.png</file>
<label>sec4twoa</label>
<copyright>College of the Redwoods Mathematics Department</copyright>
<comment></comment>
</figure>

Here's why I asked. You have a team working on Chapter 5, which has  
sections 1-7. Let's say each person volunteers to write a section.  
Unless they agree on a naming strategy beforehand, there could be  
duplicate names in the figure library files.

And then you could have several chapters with more sections.
