Three column mode with figure env

Question

I need three column mode and found a stable solution in Three column layout. Thank you for that. As I need figures I have integrated them. Unfortunately the counting of the figures are awkward as you can see in the out put below. Starred version does not help. Does anyone knows a solution or what is going wrong?

I don't think you need paracol for this.

Thank you, for your rapid reply. Out of several reasons I prefer the paracol way. I know about the difficulties (e.g. wrapfigure, but also paracol). I wonder about the wrong count and don't see the right way to do it. — gizeh, Feb 01 '21 at 21:01

In Figure counter is not incrementing after use of paracol I have found an answer. Just put ' \globalcounter{figure}' in the preamble. Ingenious. It works.
