Every caption in a float increases the counter by 1. You can put for example two tables in a float and only one caption. Furthermore, a longtable increases the counter by 1, even if you don't put a caption in it. The reason is that you should normally put a caption in your longtable, but LyX currently doesn't support this. > If this is correct, it would be nice to defeat this.
