Hello, Please include [EMAIL PROTECTED] on replies.
I am aware one cannot have multipage floats. I have a paper with lots of algorithms floating around, a couple of which happen to be longer then a page. I would like to continue to use the nice LyX algorithm float, but somehow do something special about the long ones. I have found some advice on the web, but I am not sure what the best way is. I would appreciate a pointer to what the best approach with LyX is. For example, for long tables http://www.educat.hu-berlin.de/~voss/LaTeX/floats/nonFloat.phtml recommended just redefining the meaning of \algorithm. Something modeled after: \newenvironment{myTables}[1] {% caption as parameter \stepcounter{table} \vspace{1ex} \addcontentsline{lot}{section}{\thetable\hspace{0.75em} #1} \center{\textbf{Table \thetable : }#1}% } {% \vspace{1ex}% \addtocounter{table}{-1}% } And then this piece from some (old?) Lyx documentation: Algorithms (from LATEX Configuration) The package algorithm is needed by LYX to be able to output ``algorithm-floats''. These are useful in placing short algorithms across page breaks and support an ``index of algorithms'' too.
