latex goes to great length trying to place all floats. however, with many floats in a short document, latex may fail - and is not to blame IMHO. always remember the p in the default float placement setting -> !htbp without the p you risk loosing floats.use the \clearpage command in ERT to control where latex may place a page of floats in your document. dont expect lyx to deal with this issue. it is quite complex and ERT is the solution.
read about floats in the latex faq on ctan - its excellent documentation. martin On 17/03/06, Cheng-shan (Frank) Liu <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Thank you; that's it. It worked.
