- I have a problem concerning LaTeX and PicTeX.
-
- I use xfig to draw a picture and export it as PiTeX macro.
-
- So far, so good. it is also no problem to import it then using
- LaTeX \figure enviroments.
-
- My problem is now, that LaTeX puts the figure as a float where
- it thinks that there is a good place for it. Normally at the end of the
- current chapter. But I want to have the picture at the place where
- it should be. Near to the reference of that picture.
-
- I use mathemathical symbols in the pictures, so I have to use PicTeX
- and I also want to \ref the pictures on the report.
-
- Using a \mbox does it at the right place, but I can`t put a label in
- that \mbox.
-
- Has anyone a idea how I can fix that problem?
