Re: Two more questions regarding bibliographies…
See screenshot as regards your first question. This was produced using the oscola citation style and biblatex.

I add two small screenshots. 2) In the bibliography I have a dot at the end of each entry. How could I remove that?

Put the figure in a float. Right-click on the float, and set it to appear on a page of floats. Your figure will then appear on a page with no text, and it will be centered vertically _if_ it is the only float on that page. 2. Is it possible to have a picture next to the text ( or text next to the picture :) ) in vertical direction ??? I guess you mean the horizontal direction, when you say next to? (picture and text next to each other vertically is the standard behaviour, after all.) It is possible, but there are problems. If you want the main text to float around the picture (over, under and to the side) use a float of the floatflt type, and set its width to something less than 100%. The disadvantage is that floatflt doesn't work very well. If the figure gets close to a page boundary or a sectioning command it just disappear, making this feature dangerous and difficult to use. Another way is to use an ordinary figure float, and insert two minipages side by side in it. Make sure their combined widths don't exceeed 100%. Inserting a \hfill between them may be a good idea if they combine to less than 100%. Put the figure in one minipage and write text in the other. The caveat here is that the text in the minipage floats with the figure. That is ok if all the side-text belongs to the figure (i.e. explanation of it). It will not work with part of the main text, because you don't know exactly where the figure will end up relative to the main text. It may move a few paragraphs back or forth in order to get a nice page break. Helge Hafting
