General ⇒ Any way to get floats ontop of page?

[SwedeNiklas]

Is there a way to make a float object appear at the top of an empty page? I have tried alot of combinations of \vfill \eject \clearpage \newpage without any success.

I have found many topics trying to solve the same problem but I havent found any real solution. I'm ok with the fact that float objects gets flushed downwards but why must they appear at the center of a page? I don't like the layout that way.

This has already been too time consuming, please help!

Try filling the space between a float and a fixed blank space represented by the tilde.

Code: Select all

\begin{figure}[!ht]
  …
\end[figure}

\vfill
~

Please post a minimal working example showing how you include the floating objects that appear not at the top nor at the bottom of the page.

I created a minimal working example to post here but while editing my .tex file the problem disappeared. I guess this is a strategy I'm going to use in the future when a problem needs to be solved.

My solution: (the tilde, ~, advice wasn't needed this time but may be in the future)

I moved the \begin{figure}[!th] part to the page were latex thought it should be placed and added a \clearpage before it and a \newpage after it. I guess this way there isn't a problem with the float object as it fits the way I want it to.

This is perhaps not the nicest solution and I imagine that the problem will bother me again in a not so distand future.

This is my first contact with this community, I'm very thankful for your rapid response, thanks alot.
