Page Layout ⇒ Long /newfloat problem

[fajdes]

Hi,

I have a problem with float package. When I define new float:

Code: Select all

\floatstyle{ruled} 
\newfloat{udcode}{H}{loc}[chapter]
\floatname{udcode}{Kod programu}

and then in document insert:

Code: Select all

\begin{udcode}

very long code (longer than one page)

\end{udcode}

it overrides margin of the page.

Is it possible to divide it into two pages?

Thanks

I assume that you want to format programming code in a certain language. If so, try the listings package and read in its manual how to format listings and customize their layout. Floating listings are possible, too.

Not exactly. When my udcode enviroment is longer than one A4 page latex don't move part of it to the next page. Everything is on one page. So it ovverides bottom margin.

But anyway thanks for reply

It is absolutely unclear which contents the udcode environment will have. From my point of view the declaration as a float is the wrong direction. Prepare a concrete example.
