I use <%TOPICTITLE%> in a lot of my Figures and Tables. It's very efficient and allows flexibility when renaming Topics.
However, the automatically generated Table of Figures/Table of Tables doesn't seem to see the variable and just replaces it with a blank space.
Any ideas?

Hi Gareth,
I'll have our developers look into this. It's possible that there may be an issue with that. I'll let you know when I have more information.

Are you using the image caption for the TOF entry or a separate figure heading below the image?

Problem fixed with build 5954:
https://www.helpandmanual.com/download/ ... p-v844.exe
If the text line following a figure label object contained a topic-specific variable, this variable was not replaced with the current variable in the table-of-figures (global variables worked).
