Command/definereferenceformat

Summary

The command \definereferenceformat is used for predefining reference formats.

Settings

\definereferenceformat[...][...][...=...,...]
[...]	name
[...]	name
...=...,...	inherits from \setupreferenceformat

Description

Predefine reference text, so that for example you won't have to type \in{Equation}[eq:somelabel] all the time.

Examples

Example 1

\definereferenceformat
   [ineq]
   [left=(,
    right=),
    text=Equation~,]

\placeformula[eq:pythagoras]
\startformula
  a^2+b^2=c^2
\stopformula

This is explained in \ineq[eq:pythagoras].

Example 2

The label option uses a defined \labeltext instead of an explicit text.

\setcounter[userpage][4]
\definereferenceformat
    [atfig]
    [label=page,
     type=page]

The animal (\atfig[fig:cow]) is black and white and produces milk.

\placefigure[][fig:cow]{A beautiful cow}{\externalfigure[cow][width=2cm]}

(the page number is off-by-one because of how the wiki creates its bitmaps)
