excessive space under wrap figure
Hi, I'm sorry if this came up before, but I could not find an answer in the archives. I'm using Lyx 1.5.5 on a default document of type article, single column, that includes numerous wrap-figures (float-text Wrap float...). The figures have an eps-graphic (created with Inkscape, mostly, but also from other sources. The problem does not seem eps-file sensitive), with a figure-caption below the graphic that includes a label. My problem is that Lyx reserves too much space below the figures. There is the graphics, followed by the caption, the followed by 2-4 extra lines of white space. This looks rather goofy and wastes precious space when you are up against page-limits. Furthermore, the white space below the figures can spill over to the next page, which is very undesirable. So my question is: how can I control the extend of the vertical space that is set aside for the figure? I tried editing the bounding-box info in the EPS file, which helps to controll the space between the graphic and the caption, but this doesn't seem to affect the space after the caption. The LaTeX code generated by Lyx looks like this: \begin{wrapfigure}{l}{0.35\columnwidth}% \begin{centering} \includegraphics[bb=0bp 10bp 150bp 150bp]{eqi} \par\end{centering} \caption{\label{fig:OCT-vs.-HFT}OCT vs. HFT Sensing} \end{wrapfigure}% I guess that l is the parameter that I want to change (make smaller). But how to do this in a semi repeatable fashion? Thanks for any suggestions/pointers in advance -- Andreas
Re: excessive space under wrap figure
You can adjust the position of the figure (and his caption, so the box) with the command, \vspace{-(xx)pt(or any other distance avaliable in LaTeX)}. (xx) is a number, don't write the parentheses. And you can put this command before and after the command \includegraphics. The command \centering don't make sense in {wrapfigure}environement because you need to introduce also the position {l} or {r} (left or right) in the ERT text for to put the figure. Something like this in ERT: \begin{wrapfigure}{l}{0.35\columnwidth} \vspace{-,+(xx)pt} \includegraphics[(I prefere here width=zz(unit)]{equi} \caption{bla, bla, bla} \vspace{-,+(yy)pt} \end{wrapfigure} - Original Message - From: Andreas Nowatzyk [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: lyx-users@lists.lyx.org Sent: Tuesday, September 16, 2008 10:47 AM Subject: excessive space under wrap figure Hi, I'm sorry if this came up before, but I could not find an answer in the archives.

In LyX 1.5.5, check Subsection 4.6.1, Float types, of the User's guide. There you will find some examples on how to achieve this. Basically, you can graphically insert vertical spaces with custom, negative values just about anywhere in the float. Liviu
