Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ pgfplots | Problems in LyX on Mac

[Andrew Lindsay]

Hello,

I am using Lyx and pgfplot to write a report.

When I start a new section with a graph just below the introduction text, the intro text and section header are moved below the graph, no matter what I do, the graph keeps on 'floating' to the top of the page.

How do I force the graph to stay 'in-line' or after the section title and paragraph of text?

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Regards

Your problem is not related to the pgfplots package but more a general one with float placement. Give appropriate placement parameters to your floats.

Code: Select all

\begin{figure}[!ht]
% figure content
\end{figure}

To find out how to do this in LyX is your job. I haven't got the slightest idea because I'm not a LyX user.

Excellent!!!

that worked perfectly. The pgfplot is placed in as Latex coe, so it was just a simple matter of adding the [!ht].
