After I create a figure (fig.eps) using xfig and then adding it to
my document using "insert figure: type: Encapsulated Postscript"
I tried to create a caption by setting the paragraph style
containing the figure to Caption.
What I get instead is
"Senseless:"
Not matter which way I create a Caption paragraph syle I get
the same thing.
If I build a postscript file I get nine errors.
Most of them are control sequence problems. One says no counter
defined.
It sounds like I am doing something really stupid but I don't
know what. Any suggestions?
Also,
I have kept track of posts involving creating of figures
particularly figures of the combined postscript/latex kind.
In the documentation is says that these documents cannot
be scaled. I assume that I must get them right in XFix
because they cannot be adjusted in anyway afterwards.
This should like it might be a bit awkward but to serious
of a problem. Am I correct or does it mean something
more severe.
Also,
One of the people posting about using XFix/lyx pointed out
that the combined postscript/latex figures should only be
used when the figure goes on a separate page.
Why is this the case.
I am writing a thesis in Computational Geometry and I need many
figures and many of them need to have latex commands in them.
And I don't want to put all my figures on a single page.
I need floats to work with these figures and also wrapping
around figures.
Am I going to be able to do all these things using the
combined postscript/latex XFig figures.
What options do I have?
Thanks
