Is it really important that your figure floats within the box, or do you just need the caption? In the latter case, you can use the nonfloat package. In preamble: \usepackage{nonfloat} In the box: \figcaption{My figure} Regards, Jürgen

However, I don't get why "Figure wrap float" does work, even though it is also a float. And the solution suggested on the website regrettably does not help in my case: I can't switch the box and figure, as I need the lines of the box to include the figure and, more importantly, the box float is (if I understand correctly) the only multi-page float. Is there a way to make the figure wrap float non-wrappable, i.e., to have no text at the side(s)? Thanks again! best, Frank

Figure float in multipage box
Dear all, I am writing down my PhD dissertation and would like: - A box - Multipage - With a figure float in there I almost succeeded, using a frameless multipage box, but when I insert a figure float inside the box I get: ! LaTeX Error: Not in outer par mode. This is true both in 2.0 and 2.1. When I use a figure wrap float environment, it however does work! But then it wraps, which I don't want it to do. Does anyone have an idea: - Whether this is intended behavior? - And how I can fix it/work around it? Thanks a lot in advance, I appreciate it, best, Frank
