Re: How to place a figure's caption below the figure?

2012-12-25 Thread Clemens Eisserer 
Hi again,

I got forth a bit in the meanwhile. The caption package obviously is
not intended for specifying caption placement.
For latex I found several notes, saying the caption placement is
controlled by the placement of the \caption command.

What I still wasn't able to find out is: How can I configure where/how
lyx places the \caption command?

Help is very appriciated.

Thank you in advance, Clemens

Clemens,

you had troubles with the caption's location because you inserted the
picture inside the caption. Look at the revised test file I enclose below
for correct placement (and take a look at the documentation, especially the
embedded objects manual in the Help menu).


Cheers,

Stefano

 Hi Jürgen,

  Please post a minimal LyX example file.

 I uploaded a minimal example file to: http://93.83.133.214/lyxtest.tar.gz

 As can be seen, the caption is added at the left iff there is enough
 place left, otherwise its located at the top (I would prefer it to be
 placed at the bottom). Furthermore, Lyx (2.0.5, Linux) behaves quite
 strange when writing the text which belongs to the caption. Some words
 are placed before the graphic, some of it after.

 Guess my way of adding text to the caption is just not the way it is
 intended?

 Thank you in advance, Clemens

Hi stefano,

Of course, now Lyx' behaviour makes a lot of sence ;)
Thanks a lot for your suggestions, now I was able to configure

I have to admit, I hadn't have a look at the integrated help, will do so.
The information on the net wasn't too helpful.

 I was wondering if there's a way to insert a graphic at the current
