Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ How to place caption above the "quadro" environment?

[ruiscpt]

Hello everyone,

I'm having some trouble with the placement of captions in my LaTeX document. I'm using the trivfloat package to create a "quadro" environment for my tables, similar to the regular "table" environment.

Here's a minimal example of my code:

Code: Select all

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{caption}
\usepackage{trivfloat}

\trivfloat{quadro}

\begin{document}

\section{Introduction}

\begin{table}[!htbp]
    \centering
    \caption{Example of a table}
    \begin{tabular}{|c|c|}
        \hline
        Column 1 & Column 2 \\
        \hline
        Data 1   & Data 2   \\
        Data 3   & Data 4   \\
        \hline
    \end{tabular}
\end{table}

\begin{quadro}[!htbp]
    \centering
    \caption{Example of a quadro}
    \begin{tabular}{|c|c|}
        \hline
        Column 1 & Column 2 \\
        \hline
        Data 1   & Data 2   \\
        Data 3   & Data 4   \\
        \hline
    \end{tabular}
\end{quadro}

\end{document}

As you can see, the caption for the "table" environment is placed above the table, which is what I want. However, the caption for the "quadro" environment is placed below the table, and I'd like it to be above the quadro, similar to the "table" environment.

Is there a way to achieve this using the trivfloat package, or is there another package or method I should be using instead?

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!
