I have a bad problem. I have a lyx file with lots of figure floats. Now I need to add some other figure floats. If I add 4 of them, ok. However, if I add a 5th one, I get 9 latex errors!
The last error is at the end of the document and says: LaTeX Error: Float(s) lost. \end{document} The 1st one is in the last float and says: Missing number, treated as zero. \input {snap-00-1D1D.tex} A number should have been inserted here; I inserted `0' ... "snap-00-1D1D.tex" is the figure tex file generated with gnuplot. The 2nd error is: Undefined control sequence \input {snap-00-1D1D.tex} ... Then the 3rd: LaTeX Error: Too many unprocessed floats \input {snap-00-1D1D.tex} .... Then there are other 5 errors in the caption field. It's not a problem of the input tex file, since I tried to put the same file in all the 5 floats and I get the same problem. If I put only 4 figure float, it works instead! I tried to split the file in 2 parts. Now lyx can generate a dvi preview of the first half and of the second. But if I input the second part lyx file at the end of the first, I get the same problems! What's that? What can I do? Evidently this problem is due to many figure floats, but this is only one chapter of my thesis!! -- Cheers, Davide Cavallari I would much rather have men ask why I have no statue, than why I have one. -- Marcus Procius Cato
