Hi all, I'd like to have my floats framed. Anyone who knows a smart and simple solution?
I tried an failed with the following advice, that I found on the web: -------------------------------------------------------------------- Hi, Philipp. In the past I've added a frame around my floats. Add this to your preamble and you'll get frames and the caption in italics: \usepackage{framed} %% Frame the figures \renewenvironment{figure}[1][tbph] {\ <at> float{figure}[#1]\begin{framed}} {\end{framed}\end <at> float} %% Set the captions to be italic \newcommand\myCaption[1]{\itshape\refstepcounter{figure}% \begin{center}\figurename\ \thefigure :\ #1\end{center}\upshape} \let\caption\myCaption -- Angus ------------------------------------------------------------------ I am sure this is a good advice, but I fail. I've installed framed.sty (in .../texmf/tex/latex/misc) and run mktexlsr (hoping, but not knowing that this is the right thing to do). Latex seems to find the package, but when running latex I get three "dirty" errors in front of each figure in the document. They are (omitting the comments): Extra \endgroup. \end{figure} LaTeX Error: \begin{document} ended by \end{figure}. \end{figure} LaTeX Error: \begin{figure} on input line 211 ended by \end{<}. \end{figure} Anybody knows a cure? -lars
