General ⇒ Problem with subcaption on Springer LNCS Class

[Sergio Ordine]

Hi,

I'm trying to create a \figure that comprises 4 charts, on a 2 x 2 structure. I have used the \figure environment and \subfigure to do so. For captions I have used the packages caption and subcaption.

Altough it works fine on a regular article, when I use the same with LNCS class I get the following error:

ERROR: Package caption Error: Something's wrong--perhaps a missing \caption in the last figure or table

Could you please suggest how to correct this issue or a different approach to do this on a LNCS document?


Thanks a lot!
Sergio

Hi Sergio,

welcome to the board!

Perhaps post a minimal working example. With this code, we could test it and see if we would find a fix. The description is quite theoretical.

AFAIK the caption package is incompatible to the Springer document classes.

So better try \usepackage[caption=false]{subfig} instead of using the caption/subcaption tandem here.

Hi Stefan,
I am also facing the same problem highlighted here regarding the sub-figures in one graph. I am using a template provided from a Springer journal. I tried to track the two lines of code in LaTex class file but i didn't find any relevant for the two lines you defined as the cause of error
the error sytetax is: ! Package caption Error: Something's wrong--perhaps a missing \caption

here is the latex class I used from springer template, and also the latex document where i wish to generate sub-figures graph.

I appreciate you help. thanks
