Try with adding a HighResBoundingBox as well, that seem to make it.

Since you have so many long words that can't be hypenated, you can not expect

Empty pagestyle on a page with figures
Hi list
In my document I have some large figures which end up on a page by themself.
How do I make the pagestyle of this page empty?
I've tried to put \thispagestyle{empty} inside the float. However that only made
the page where the float was defined empty. Which is not what I want.

Hi
Since I don't want to spend too much space in my article, I'd like to
have a table just next to a figure inside one float.
I want a figure caption on the figure and a table caption on the table.
I've tried different ways but not come up with a satisfying solution.
I've scanned the archives but not found anything but how to put two
figures/tables side by side, not the both kinds at the same time.
The best I found was to use the nofloat package which has defined
tabcaption and figcaption separately. This made it possible to make a
one by two table inside a figure environmen, set a fixed width of each
column and insert the table and figures inside the cells.
Then manually creating the captions by placing
ERT: \tabcaption{My table caption}
in the first cell. And
ERT: \figcaption{My figure caption}
in the second cell.
This is ok, however, I'm not convinced that the nofloat package screws
other things up.
I stumbeled over a solution, different from the other proposed, when
reading the manual for memoir (which is excellent).
Here is the way I think it should be solved. Assuming the first is
figure and the second is a table:
1) insert a figure float
2) Insert two minipages side by side, adjusting their widths
(alternatively a table)
3) insert the graphics and the table
4) on the row after graphis and table inside the minimpages create a
caption where the caption text is placed.
5) In the minipage with table insert an ERT with the following

Done!
The ERT will tell the caption typesetter that then next caption should
be a table.
I'll put this on the wiki as well.

Hello all,
I use LyX 1.3.5 in suse 9.0.
I need to reduce the distance between the text lines in the figure

Add \usepackage{setspace} to the preamble and in the figure caption
start with \setstretch{X} in ERT, where X is a number less than 1.

Figure and table side by side
Hi
Since I don't want to spend too much space in my article, I'd like to
have a table just next to a figure inside one float.
I want a figure caption on the figure and a table caption on the table.
I've tried different ways but not come up with a satisfying solution.
I've scanned the archives but not found anything but how to put two
figures/tables side by side, not the both kinds at the same time.
The best I found was to use the nofloat package which has defined
tabcaption and figcaption separately. This made it possible to make a
one by two table inside a figure environmen, set a fixed width of each
column and insert the table and figures inside the cells.
Then manually creating the captions by placing
ERT: \tabcaption{My table caption}
in the first cell. And
ERT: \figcaption{My figure caption}
in the second cell.
This is ok, however, I'm not convinced that the nofloat package screws
other things up.
Any clues?

How about
1. insert minipage right click inside and reduce width to less than 50% column
width when the cue pops up
2. Insert Hfill
3. Insert another minipage as in 1
4. Put your figure in one minipage and your table in the other.
Yes, that's an alternative from using the 1 x 2 table. But my problem is
with the captions. I want a table caption for the table and a figure
caption for the figure. If I put everything in a figure float both
captions will become Figure and vice versa.

Put it inside a box, using ert, something like
ERT \mbox{

It should also be possible to have the mbox inside the mathenvironment but
I did not get it to work when I tried, so have the mbox outside using

Sure, I do that alot. This comes from my my.bind
\bind M-r command-sequence ert-insert; self-insert \\rb{} ; inset-toggle
It creates an ERT, inserts \rb{} and then closes it.

It turns out I'll need to install a full version of Perl to use mptopdf. Before I do that, I'm going to try Ipe, which looks like it might be useful, particularly as it can include math-mode LaTeX in plot labels. The font problem I had with Dia related to displaying math-mode labels. Even if I get that resolved, I don't think it will be easy to position them correctly in Dia, since the LaTeX source text is not the same size as the end result. Switching to Ipe seems like a good choice, and is actually what I've done. Apart from beeing good at handling math-labels its drawing functionallities are great. /johan -- Johan Ingvast, PhD student http://www.md.kth.se/~ingvast Department of Machine Design, Royal Institute of Technology, Sweden http://www.md.kth.se, http://www.md.kth.se/~cas --- Walking robot proj tel +46 (0)8 790 95 36 mob. +46 (0)70 34 34 498
