Why does name of section superimpose on picture? And how does this prevent?

Hi there,

Just a few remarks about your question: 1. Why do you create a "floatingfigure" environment, since the "figure" environment is by definition floating??? 2. How big is your graphic???

If you want my advice, I would just make

Code: Select all

\begin{figure}[ht]
  \includegraphics[height=10cm]{images/circuit.eps}
  \caption{cap cap cap}
  \end{figure}
  text text text text text text text 

\section{sec sec}
This will create a figure environment, and will include your graphics making a box of 10cm high in your text. The rest of your text should flow right after the figure.

Cheers

Studying the manual of floatflt will clarify this misunderstanding.
