Default bold in caption

Hi.

My caption looks like - Figure 1-2. Description...
And the code looks like - Figure { STYLEREF 1 \s }-{ SEQ Figure \* ARABIC \s
1 }

What I want is to have the words "Figure 1-2." in bold, but the text
"Description" is in plain.
Is there any easy way?

thanks.

Add the following at the end of the field:
\* CharFormat
and format the "S" in StyleRef as Bold (or the entire word).

Default bold in caption

Hello. thanks for the reply.
But, for some reason, I cannot make it.

Here's what I've done.
Select the first caption, toggle field codes, add the part you wrote to the
end of the field (so it looks like { SEQ Figure \* ARABIC \so 1 \* Char }),
toggle field codes, change the font to bold (only Figure 1-1.), select all
document (Ctrl A), F9 to update...

None of the caption is changed except for the one I changed manually.
I am using a caption style I made "Caption - Figure", which defines only the
line spacing. And the font is defined as plain in the style...

Am I missing something?

thanks.

Default oops: bold in caption

The code looks
{ SEQ Figure \* ARABIC \s 1 \* CharFormat }
(spell check did something...)
