Problem with Break...empty space

Post by pupilforce »

Hi Fellows!

I'n new in the field of Lyx but right now I'm working on my Masters-thesis and I discovered a problem in the compiled pdf-file of my lyx-document:
There is a 4 line long space where none should be. As if the document thinks there has to be some kind of object. When I copy the whole affected part and paste it in a new document the seems to be no such problem. However when I copy the whole documenttext and paste it in a new one..there you go: Same thing!

I have two of these parts in my thesis and I really need to get rid of them. I would be greatful if someone could help me.

To me this seems like reserved space for a wrapfigure environment provided by the wrapfig package. In cases where such an environment is placed at the bottom of a page, the automatically calculated hanging lines spread to the next page. Try to avoid that by giving the value for the hanging lines explicitly as option to the environment. For further explanations you have to take a look at the wrapfig.sty file directly because the package has no manual in PDF format.

Please upload attachments to the forum server. External links can get lost with time thus make problems incomprehensible. (For this time I did the upload subsequently.)


Best regards and welcome to the board

Sorry 'bout that image-upload. Next time I will do better.
