Could you give an example if the comments below dont work?

I got my floats mostly to the right place when I set the options

  * Here if posible
  * Top of page
  * Bottom of page

Therefore you have right-click on a collapsed float object and you can
select these option in the Float-Settings.

When this doesnt help I reorder my float in the text (chance the position
of definition).

I hope that helps.
