Figure caption below figure

Post by kartikpandya »

dear sir,
how can i get the figure caption below the figure in output pdf file?
because in my file , figure caption always appears above the figure in pdf file.
i have tried both the cases: in lyx file, i put figure caption above figure.
in second case i put figure caption below the figure.
but for both cases i get figure caption above the figure in pdf file.
thanks

Usually you simply get the caption below the figure by placing the \caption command below the figure.

If this does not work for you, you either use a document class which prevents this, or you are using a package (like the floatrow or float package) and appropriate options which prevents this.

Without more information or a simple but complete example showing the problem I cannot tell more, I'm sorry.

dear sir,
I got the figure caption below the figure. I had made the mistake. i had put figure caption outside the figure float box. Instead, it should be put inside it.
but i have another question: I want to decrease the distance between the figure caption and figure in output pdf file. How can i do it?
i have attached all three files here.

thanks
