Hi Johan,
One way of doing this is to put a table in the figure float and then one figure in each table cell. Below each figure you can have a separate caption which will be shown in the list of figures. This is different from the subfigure which does not show in the list of figures.
mhhhh shit. I already tried this (nearly). I remembered html, so i inserted a table (one row two columns) an inside i tried to insert my figure floats. This was no succsess. Yes i want a separate caption for each picture, an a separate entry in the list of figures. I will check this as soon as posible.
You don't have to use a table (with lines or the hassle of turning all the lines off) It can be nice if you want a table of figures though.
This is how I dd this in my book:
1. Create a figure float
2. Insert as many minipages inside that float as necessary. Make sure
that the pćaragraph type inside the float is "standard", not "caption" !
3. Adjust minipages to proper size (so several will fit on a line), add hfills between them for nice spacing if necessary
4. Insert one figure in each minipage.
5. Press enter after the figure inside, to get a new paragraph.
Make that new paragraph a "caption". Repeat for each figure
6. Type in whatever text you want in the captions.
This allows as many figures side by side as you want. Each figure can have its own caption if you wish. Each caption will be numbered and appear in the list of figures (if you use that list)
This is very flexible. One caption for everything, or several captions. Each figure may be sized independently. And they don't all have to be graphichs, feel free to put anything in those minipages; text, graphichs, math, tables, . . .
