Hay,
I am writing my thesis in the latex class memoir. I have lots of figures in my thesis and I always use the following code in latex:
\begin{figure}[!hp]
\centering
\includegraphics[]{}
\caption{}
\label{}
\end{figure}
but most of my figures end up not there where I place them instead there are commonly all at the end of my chapter. Can someone help me? What do I have to do to get my graphs (almost) there where I want to have them?
Looking forward for response!

Try another combination of placement parameters.
And please use the code environment of the forum to tag code as such.

Re: Figures always at the end of the chapter
Hi,
I'm having the same problem for a few figures. My positioning index is [!h] which should be enough to get them to appear in the place in the text that i want them. But all the figures in one chapter of my LaTeX document are appearing at the end of the chapter.
Cheers,
Saul Wiggin

Are you sure it should be enough? According to whom? We can't provide effective help without some more useful information.saul_wiggin wrote:Hi,

Re: Figures always at the end of the chapter
I would like to place a page size figure in a section however when i use [!h] the figure and all other figures get pushed to the end of the chapter. How can i keep the figures in the same section?
Re: Figures always at the end of the chapter
In my opinion, the descriptor h is intended for "small" figures, not for page sized ones. Use no descriptor at all (so LaTeX takes the default [tbp]) or simply [p]. One the big figure is well positioned, try to place the remaining ones, eventually with h if needed.
