I am currently writing a many-file textbook using a master.tex file. To label figures, tables, sections, etc. without a collision of labels I have been using the convention:
chapter-name:section-name:my-label
So, for instance, I have a the following in the file which labels an example which has to do with the tension in the string of a pendulum in the section "Pick A Nice Point" in the chapter "Answer Strategies"
\label{answer-strategies:pick-a-nice-point:pendulum-tension}
Now, when I try to do completion
\ref{answer-stra[[press Alt-escape, select completion]]}
I wind up with a duplication of anything that comes before the last typed dash:
\ref{answer-answer-strategies:pick-a-nice-point:pendulum-tension}
instead of the expected:
\ref{answer-strategies:pick-a-nice-point:pendulum-tension}
Another example below.
Does anyone know how to work around this? I've already typed about one hundred labels and references, and I so far I have put up with correcting the completion each time. It's getting old, though.
Thanks a lot,
Evan
-------------------------------------------------- Another example would be:
\ref{answer-strategies:pick-a-nic[[Alt-escape]]}
yields
\ref{answer-strategies:pick-a-answer-strategies:pick-a-nice- point:pendulum-tension}
instead of
\ref{answer-strategies:pick-a-nice-point:pendulum-tension}
