\section{Captions and Floats}

To add a caption, we need to wrap our image in a \texttt{figure} environment:
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{Verbatim}[]
|
||||
\begin{figure}[h]
|
||||
\includegraphics[scale=0.5]{birb}
|
||||
\caption{Birb.}
|
||||
\end{figure}
|
||||
\end{Verbatim}
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{figure}[h]
|
||||
\includegraphics[scale=0.5]{birb}
|
||||
\caption{Birb.}
|
||||
\end{figure}
|
||||
|
||||
A couple of things to note here: First, while the actual image is not very large, the \texttt{figure} environment is the width of the page, meaning that the caption does not actually align with the image. Second, we passed the \texttt{[h]} option to the \texttt{figure} environment, because it is a float, allowing \LaTeX{} to put the image where it thinks it best fits. This is not always a good thing.
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{longtblr}
|
||||
[
|
||||
caption = {\texttt{figure} Positioning Parameters},
|
||||
label = {tb:figpospar}
|
||||
]{
|
||||
width = {\textwidth},
|
||||
colspec = { X[1,l] X[6,l] },
|
||||
hlines = {0.75pt,solid},
|
||||
vline{1,3} = {0.75pt,solid},
|
||||
rows = {5mm, m, rowsep=1.5pt}
|
||||
}
|
||||
h & Place the float \textbf{here}, approximately where it appears in the file. \\
|
||||
t & At the top of the page \\
|
||||
b & At the bottom of the page \\
|
||||
p & On a special page for floats only \\
|
||||
! & Override \LaTeX{}'s parameters for determining the float position
|
||||
\end{longtblr}
|
||||
|
||||
Note that the \texttt{!} parameter can be combine with the \texttt{h} parameter. The \texttt{float} package also introduces the \texttt{[H]} parameter, which is roughly equivalent to \texttt{h!}, but can be problematic.

\item Need to control the gap between the header and the rest of the text? Pass the \verb|headsep| argument to the \texttt{geometry} package and set it equal to the amount of space you need (i.e., \texttt{headsep=12pt}).
