Float placement with SWeave

2009-06-01 Thread Graham Smith 
Can anyone give me some hints about float placement of figures created 
with SWeave. 

I have tried a float and a wrap float,  but the former seems to put the 
floats one per page, and the latter seems to end up with text running 
through the figure.


Is there a standard way of doing this, or do I just have to keep fiddling.

Of course this migt be more my inexperience wth Lyx rather than SWeave, 
but normally with a figure,  I can alter the size of the figures, to 
find an optimum size for the float, but with SWeave, the float doesn't 
contain the figure, only the code to create the figure in R, so this 
isn't an option.


This is Lyx 1.6.2 on a Mac with tiger.

Many thanks,

Graham
