You can't have more than one heading level associated with a given caption
label (such as Figure). Whenever you change the setting, you change it for
all captions, not just the current one. The conventional wisdom is that
captions deeper than ChapterNumber.FigureNumber are confusing, anyway. So
just associate the caption with Heading 1 and let it ride.

Hi,
I have been having trouble in formatting captions for a very long
project. I want it to include the chapter numbers on my pictures but
whenever i change the chapter number, all the top captions change with
the same chapter numbers

These are the steps i have undertaken

Changing the heading:

Giving the first chapter caption

After the caption is changed for chapter 2 for the 2nd picture on the
top changes to figure 1.1.1


And when i change the caption to the next chapter level by doing this:

the first picture changes to figure 1.1.1.1, the 2nd figure changes to
figure 1.1.1.1 also while the last picture i captioned it also becomes
the same figure 1.1.1.1 as shown below
