- Select the figure number from the beginning of the long caption (this is
actually a SEQ field) and drag it into the TC field after the word "Figure".
Then, in the long caption where the number used to be, type the figure
number as plain text.

This is where the PITA comes in: If you insert or remove figures, the
plain-text numbers in the long captions won't change to reflect that. You'll
have to go through all the captions, making manual changes to the long
caption numbers.

Maybe someone else will contribute a way that keeps the long caption numbers
in sync without also stuffing them into the TOC.

Two ideas (never really implemented myself):

- Bookmark the SEQ in the TC-field and cross-reference it in the caption
itself (or better: leave the SEQ-field in front and reproduce the same
SEQ-number in the TC-field, IIRC there's a switch for that).

- Use a style separator/hidden para mark.
