Steve, I don't know whether it is explicitly documented, but if you look at the documentation for floats (4.3.2.1 in UserGuide.lyx for 1.5.1) and examine how the labels are placed in the floats, you will see they are in the captions, at the beginning. I doubt if putting them elsewhere in the caption would make any difference, but when you click on the label icon, the default name of the label is based on the first few words after the cursor. Doing this in your example gives "The-Rapid-Learning" as the label for the first figure, and "The-Terminology-learning" for the second figure. The default is close to what you want in many cases. If there was a particular word or phrase later in the caption you wanted in the label you could insert the label in front of it, and I'm sure it would work fine. Les
