LaTeX is a quite sophisticated typesetting system and lets you fine tune a large set of style parameters. Below you can find a list of parameters that I think are of interest to you. Those not starting with a backslash are counters and are to be set as \setcounter{topnumber}{1}, for example, the others must changed using \renewcommand, such as \renewcommand{\topfraction}{0.4}, or \renewcommand{\floatsep}{15mm} for rubber lengths. Changes made in the preamble apply from the first page on. Changes made afterwards take effect on the next page, not the current one. topnumber - A counter whose value is the maximum number of floats allowed at the top of a page. \topfraction - The maximum fraction of the page that can be occupied by floats at the top of the page. Thus, the value 0.25 specifies that as much as the top quarter of the page may be devoted to floats. bottomnumber - Same as topnumber except for the bottom of the page. \bottomfraction - Same as \topfraction except for the bottom of the page. totalnumber - A counter whose value is the maximum number of floats that can appear on a single page, irrespective of their positions. \textfraction - The minimum fraction of a page that must be devoted to text. The other 1-\textfraction fraction may be occupied by floats. \floatsep - The vertical space added between floats that appear at the top or bottom of a text page. It is a rubber length. \textfloatsep - The vertical space added between the floats appearing at the top or bottom of a page and the text on that page. Rubber length. \intextsep - The vertical space placed above and below a float that is put in the middle of the text with the "h" location option. Rubber length. HTH -- Enrico

But you can for example set a \pagebreak in ERT or a pagebreak vie LyX's menu (note that they are different) directly before the float to force its appearace on the next page. You can also adjust the bottompagefraction within the document at the critical positions or globally. You can use LaTeX's default settings or ignore it, you can set the float placement order tbp, etc. as described. 2) set the distance between figures. This is not possible because you have floats and that means they can float to the position where LateX thinks it's the best or you adjusted with the parameters I listed above. If you really need a definite float place then use the "here definetively " placement option and insert a vertical space between two consecutive floats. regards Uwe

I have read several times the "Float Placement" section and I have not finded any clue of how to 1) forbid more than one figure per page, in a page with text, or 2) set the distance between figures. Thanks Ramon
