Re: [docbook-apps] Title incorrect for figures in appendix

Hi,
I am not able to duplicate this problem.  First, it seems you included the 
label attributes by accident in your sample.  When those are included, they 
override completely the generated label number.

When I remove those attributes, I get just a single dot in the appendix 
figure title.  Were you testing with the stock DocBook XSL stylesheets or a 
customization layer?  If the latter, please test with the stock stylesheets 
to determine if it is your customization layer that adds the two dots.

The two dots should be coming from a template in 
mode="intralabel.punctuation", which is in common/labels.xsl. You don't see 
that template expressed it in your chapter because it seems you don't number 
your chapters, so the figures have only a single number without the chapter 
number prefix, so there is no intralabel punctuation.
