Figures, size of figure in a thesis ...

Post by Sam »

Dear All,

I hope I am posting in the right section!

In my thesis, the figures messes up everything...

I am not sure why :

1. I get errors and figures extra big...even when tying to use: [height=1in,width=1in] and play with the dimension nothing changes :(

2. the figure resolution gets distorted and the size does not change though

3. the figure is in black and white or looses the colours!

4. Latex output the caption aswhat is in the \label{fig:HWIL.JPG}
and not what is between the [] in caption!

i use this syntax..

\begin{figure}[htbp]
\centering
\includegraphics[width=1\textwidth]{./Figures/HWIL.JPG}
\caption[HWIL]{HWIL}
\label{fig:HWIL.JPG}
\end{figure}

thansk for helping me ;)

You really should provide a complete Minimal Working Example (MWE), since from that part of code it's hard to suggest anything. And don't forget to attach an example picture which shows the issue when included.

It is not the first time that you have been asked for a MWE by other users. In the past all that followed from your side often was … nothing. It is in your own interest that you clearly describe problems and give appropriate examples of what is not working for you. Otherwise I'm pessimistic that you get the help you need.
