Caption placement

Post by NinV »

Hi!

I would like to place \caption at a x,y position at my will.

I've checked the guides I know, but I was able to find a solution.

Does someone know how can I decide the position of the caption using coordinates x,y? If it is possible.

Thanks a lot,
Nino

Hi Nino,

you could use the textpos package to place the caption at an arbitrary position, see its documentation.

Hi, Stefan.

Thanks a lot!

Is it possible to redifine \caption so that I can use (x,y)?

I'm new to LaTex, so my questions could be very stupid!

Ciao,
