Re: want to prevent textheight from bottom justify

What I'm seeing is, if there's a large block (e.g., figure) that needs to follow paragraphs or an enumerated list, and there's not enough space on the page, instead of leaving white space on the bottom of the page, it spaces out the enumerated list or paragraphs on that previous page, so that some text will show at the bottom of that page. Looks like it's bottom justifying the page text. Books are supposed to be this way, because you see two pages at a time when a book is open. Having them end at different height tends to look stupid, so the text is stretched. Having lots of stretchable/compressable spacing (headings, lists, paragraph breaks) makes the effects smaller. It can look bad if you only have a little stretchable space that gets stretched a lot. There is an override, I think it is a latex command like \raggedbottom which you put in a ERT box.

want to prevent textheight from bottom justify
Hi, Is there a way to prevent the text in Book document class from bottom justifying the text height? What I'm seeing is, if there's a large block (e.g., figure) that needs to follow paragraphs or an enumerated list, and there's not enough space on the page, instead of leaving white space on the bottom of the page, it spaces out the enumerated list or paragraphs on that previous page, so that some text will show at the bottom of that page. Looks like it's bottom justifying the page text. Thanks for any help.
