I'd like to be able to do generate a graphic, then automatically generate a cell
in myFigureStyle that has automatic numbering. I have figured out part of the
process. Inside whatever graphics command I use, I use
Epilog->{CellPrint[Cell["I enter the figure description here",myFigureStyle]]}.
But I haven't figured out (no pun intended) how to get the cell to start with
Figure 1., so that it actually looks like
Figure 1. I enter the figure description here
and the next time I use it,
Figure 2. Here's the caption for my next figure.
In other words, I don't know how to define myFigureStyle.
On a related note, I couldn't find out what all the available predefined styles
are (for cells). I read somewhere that not all the styles are in the
Format|Styles menu. In the appropriate section of the Mathematica book, a style called
NumberedEquation is mentioned, but I couldn't find it anywhere (thus I cannot
use it).
