Keep With Next formatting doesn't keep Figure and caption together

I am  a Technical Writer converting a software user's guide into a new format, and I need to follow a convention for creating figures wherein a custom "Centered" style + Keep with Next formatting is applied to the imported image so that it follows the accompanying caption (custom "Caption" style) across page breaks.

This approach has worked for the first ten figures in the document, but the eleventh image just refuses to follow its caption over page breaks, no matter how many times I apply "Keep With Next" or any of the other appropriate styles.

How do I fix this?  It's starting to frustrate me.

If you want to send me the document, I will investigate the issue.
Hope this helps,

Is the image in question formatted as In Line With Text? Is the caption also inline? Is there room for both on the same page? Are they consecutive (no empty paragraphs between them)?

Make sure:

1. That the graphic is positioned inline

2. That the caption that follows it doesn't ALSO have Keep with Next turned on.
