Re: [O] Bug: Nested \caption and \label in LaTeX export [9.1.14 (9.1.14-1-g4931fc-elpaplus @ /home/simon/.emacs.d/elpa/26.1/develop/org-plus-contrib-20180910/)]

Dear Eric,

thanks for the fast reply!
Indeed, I had a look at the lshort documentation.
It actually never states that \label must come after the full \caption{}
command - nesting works - good to know.
I'm sorry for the inconvenience.

Cheers,
Simon
