Can Numbering Formats from target marker paragraphs be used in Cross Reference formats?

I'm marking a line which utilizes a specific figure paragraph style under a figure table by using an insertion point at the beginning of the line. The numbering format of this paragraph places a text formulated as "F:Fig. <n+>" in front of the line. Because of that, the insertion point starts after the numbering text in the line. Is there a way to include this numbering format on the source cross-reference text? I've manually named the marker in the correct format but I don't see any building block for the marker name in the building blocks list. I'm trying to form the text as

 

"See Fig. 3 “Prohibited Signs” on page 7."

 

instead of what I'm getting at the moment

 

"See “Prohibited Signs” on page 7.".

 

See the below screenshots.

You may only need to add a <$paranum> or <$paranumonly> building block ahead of that <$paratext> in the Cross-Reference format.

Thanks for the tip Bob. <$paranum> did the trick for me.
