Jag ska översätta en bildtext tillhörande en bild/skärmdump med inlagda siffror som markerar olika delar av bilden, så här:
"Se bild nedan, siffra 1".
Bör jag översätta "siffra" med "number", "figure" eller något annat?

Figure
Yes it is sometimes numeral or digit (as in´seven digit number`) but here figure looks about right. You yourself will see more context and choose which is likely to suit.

Sven Petersson
: No, in this context it's "bild" that's translated into "figure", not "siffra".

number
I think Sven is right -- the entire picture could be labelled "Fig 1". But on the picture there are some numbers identifying particular aspects in the picture. For example, you might have a map of a town, with individual numbers identifying various hotels.
So in this context I would say "See picture below, number 1".
