error: floats lost
I have a bad problem. I have a lyx file with lots of figure floats. Now I
need to add some other figure floats. If I add 4 of them, ok. However, if
I add a 5th one, I get 9 latex errors!
The last error is at the end of the document and says:
LaTeX Error: Float(s) lost.
\end{document}
The 1st one is in the last float and says:
Missing number, treated as zero.
\input
{snap-00-1D1D.tex}
A number should have been inserted here; I inserted `0'
...
snap-00-1D1D.tex is the figure tex file generated with gnuplot.
The 2nd error is:
Undefined control sequence
\input

...
Then the 3rd:
LaTeX Error: Too many unprocessed floats
\input
{snap-00-1D1D.tex}
Then there are other 5 errors in the caption field.
It's not a problem of the input tex file, since I tried to put the same
file in all the 5 floats and I get the same problem. If I put only 4
figure float, it works instead!
I tried to split the file in 2 parts. Now lyx can generate a dvi preview
of the first half and of the second. But if I input the second part lyx
file at the end of the first, I get the same problems!
What's that? What can I do? Evidently this problem is due to many figure

Problems importing latex
Hi!
I'm having problems importing a latex document that contains a picture
environment.
For example, if I try to import the latex file:
\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
\setlength{\unitlength}{3947sp}
\begin{picture}(5649,3430)(214,-2885)
\put(301,314){\makebox(0,0)[lb]{Velocidad}}
\end{picture}
\end{document}
I get
\setlength{\unitlength}{3947sp}
\begin{picture}(5649,3430)(214,-2885)
\put(301,314){\makebox{(}0,0)[lb]{Velocidad}}
\end{picture}
which produce a wrong dvi file. What I'm doing wrong?
Thanks!

Problems importing latex
Hi!
I'm having problems importing a latex document that contains a picture
environment.
For example, if I try to import the latex file:
\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
\setlength{\unitlength}{3947sp}
\begin{picture}(5649,3430)(214,-2885)
\put(301,314){\makebox(0,0)[lb]{Velocidad}}
\end{picture}
\end{document}
I get
\setlength{\unitlength}{3947sp}
\begin{picture}(5649,3430)(214,-2885)
\put(301,314){\makebox{(}0,0)[lb]{Velocidad}}
\end{picture}
which produce a wrong dvi file. What I'm doing wrong?
Thanks!

You need to either not float them at all but just include the figures inline in your text or set them all to be displayed "here". This is done by putting "H" or maybe it's "h" in Layout->Document->Extra->Float_Placement This will affect _all_ your floats.

error: floats lost
I have a bad problem. I have a lyx file with lots of figure floats. Now I
need to add some other figure floats. If I add 4 of them, ok. However, if
I add a 5th one, I get 9 latex errors!
The last error is at the end of the document and says:
LaTeX Error: Float(s) lost.
\end{document}
The 1st one is in the last float and says:
Missing number, treated as zero.
\input
{snap-00-1D1D.tex}
A number should have been inserted here; I inserted `0'
...
"snap-00-1D1D.tex" is the figure tex file generated with gnuplot.
The 2nd error is:
Undefined control sequence
\input
{snap-00-1D1D.tex}
...
Then the 3rd:
LaTeX Error: Too many unprocessed floats
\input
{snap-00-1D1D.tex}
Then there are other 5 errors in the caption field.
It's not a problem of the input tex file, since I tried to put the same
file in all the 5 floats and I get the same problem. If I put only 4
figure float, it works instead!
I tried to split the file in 2 parts. Now lyx can generate a dvi preview
of the first half and of the second. But if I input the second part lyx
file at the end of the first, I get the same problems!
What's that? What can I do? Evidently this problem is due to many figure
floats, but this is only one chapter of my thesis!!

Checked it, there is no estonian language package for latex. But then, why
doesn't LyX use nohyphenation, when i set the language to be estonian and
there's no language package available?
Using the preamble from your given link:
\tolerance=200
\setlength{\emergencystretch}{2em}
the right sides of lines still went somewhat wavy.

And when i check it, the lines really seem to be same length. Seems that i
simply have to manually set all the margins to some acceptable value and also
load the geometry package. But DOES that work always and for all fonts?

All your floats will be placed where they are mentioned in the text. LaTeX won't let them float to another page. Actually you would probably want to enter "!h" in the float placement field instead of just "h". Allan. (ARRae)

because lyx has no idea what kind of packages you are
using and what they are doing.
