counterssubfloats
I'm creating an appendix for a Master thesis and I have lots of pictures that I want to insert. I receive an error message that the counter reaches the letter (z) and I do not know how to solve this. I have far more pictures to insert, but then they cannot be labelled properly.
Does anyone have a solution to this?
I get no error and also the reset of subfigure numbering if I remove tabularx, that's probably the cause for the issue.
You simply don't need it just for setting multiple subfigures.
I also changed Thesis to book, as it's impossible to know what class you're loading.

In the example, I used height=2cm in order not to get too large floats.
Maybe I'm missing an important complication, but I think all you need to do is (a) define a "scratch" counter variable named, say, scratchcounter, in the preamble and (b) use an instruction such as
\setcounter{scratchcounter}{\value{theorem}}
immediately after the theorem in question to store the number of the theorem (minus the "prefix") in the counter named scratchcounter. Its value may be accessed elsewhere in the document via \thescratchcounter.
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{amsthm} % or: "\usepackage{ntheorem}"
\newtheorem{theorem}{Theorem}[section]
\newcounter{scratchcounter} % define the scratch counter
\begin{document}
\setcounter{section}{2} % just for this example
\setcounter{theorem}{20}
\begin{theorem}[Pythagoras] \label{thm:pyth}
$a^2+b^2=c^2$.
\end{theorem}
\setcounter{scratchcounter}{\value{theorem}} % Store value of 'theorem' counter
\bigskip\noindent
Later on \dots\ the value of the ``scratch'' counter is \thescratchcounter.
\end{document}

Some details on @Werner's comment: if you use, say, the
subfigureenvironment, these lines in your preamble should solve your problem:After
z, you'll getaa,ab,\dots. fromsubcaptionIf you prefer a numeric subfigure counter, just use something like:
or if you want to prefix with the main figure number:
