In books it is very useful to refer to a section by its name. The Quarto documentation does this, e.g. the link to "Cross references" on this line:
https://github.com/quarto-dev/quarto-web/blob/eed8baacea8448cd2ec60e34250ad2215de6831f/docs/authoring/figures.qmd#L25
But it's done with a hyperlink to an absolute HTML page.
Another example is within a page:
https://github.com/quarto-dev/quarto-web/blob/eed8baacea8448cd2ec60e34250ad2215de6831f/docs/authoring/cross-references.qmd#L26
There's an anchor generated through
## Options {#options}
. It seems to be HTML-specific.In LaTeX, it's done by
\nameref{sec-blahblah}
and I see that quarto supports this for PDF output.Are there plans to make this work with
@sec-blahblah
for other render destinations (e.g. html)? I'm thinking something like[caption@sec-blahblah]
as a general solution.Beta Was this translation helpful? Give feedback.
