to anyone who can assist the following is my current tabular environment ************************************************************** \begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|l|} \hline Factor & Response curve shape & Estimated best value & \hspace{4mm} 99\% CI \\ \hline \hline Crossover & Linear & 0\% & \hspace{8mm} - \\ \hline Mutation & Quadratic& 20.92\% & 20.78\%-21.07\%\\ \hline Interaction & Linear:Linear & - & \hspace{8mm} - \\ \hline \end{tabular} ************************************************************** my problem was that i needed the entries in the last column ALL to be centered EXCEPT for the entry "20.78\%-21.07\%". i needed this entry to be LEFT aligned. unfortunately, i could not see how to do this and so resorted to a kludge ie made the last column left aligned and then added the necessary hspace where appropriate. my question is, is there anyway i could have made the last column CENTRE aligned, but just overrided the centering for the entry "20.78\%-21.07\%" so that this was LEFT aligned. thanks for any assistance andrew Dr AST Czarn |

Replace "20.78\%-21.07\%" with "\multicolumn{1}{l}{20.78\%-21.07\%}". It should work, but I didn't test it. Hans |

\multicolumn{1}{l}{20.78\%-21.07\%} With the {l} you need to add vertical rules if they are there in the original. Cheers, Phil Ratcliffe |

to anyone who can assist how does one supply the argument to \bibliography{} when the bibliography database is in a different directory to the document you are working on. for eg, i have tried \bibliography{{database}{d:\differentdirectory\}} but this does not appear to work (though i believe this format may work for \includegraphics) thank you andrew Dr AST Czarn |

Why are the figures moving around in the text? How do you get them to be exactly where you put them in the source code?

If you don't need a caption/figure number just removed "\begin{figure} ... \end{figure}" and use just \includegraphics{}. Hans |

I > wanted to have it inside the subsection of my chapter. What does [h!] > mean. The optional argument to a figure environment can contain letters h ("here" --> put the figure where it occurs in the LaTeX code), t ("top" --> put figure on top of the page where it occurs), b ("bottom" --> put it on bottom of the page where it occurs) or p ("page" --> put it on a separate page). An extra "!" in there will tell LaTeX that you really really want that type of positioning. Even with these options, the figure environment is still a _floating_ environment. The options only indicate what you want LaTeX to do, but if LaTeX thinks it's best not to follow your options, then it will float the figure elsewhere. I see two ways to put figures where they occur in the text: * don't use the figure environment, only \includegraphics. You can put a caption underneath it with specific packages like caption2 (IIRC); * use the "float" package, and put H (capital h) in the option of the figure environment. This makes the figure environment essentially non-floatable, so it will stay where you put it in the text, and you can use captioning and figure numbering the way you would do normally. But after all, keep in mind that LaTeX usually has good reasons to not put a figure where you would want it. I tend to believe that it knows better than me what makes a document look good and professional, so I personally don't temper too much with defaults like these... you could, for instance, hack together a style file that makes LaTeX output look like a Word document, but you will lose every single advantage of using LaTeX.

Try \usepackage{here} and type figure[H], which will place your figures exactly where you used the figure environment. Thomas Wibeke Nordhøy wrote: > Why are the figures moving around in the text?

Hello Andrew, The argument specifies the path to the bib file.. For example if your database is c:\builds\main.bib, the command is \bibliography{c:/builds/main} You can also use a relative path: \bibliography{../shared/main} As far as I can gather there are two rules: a) Use forward slashes "/" instead of back slashes."\" b) The path must not contain folders with names longer than 8 characters Regards, Willem ----- Original Message ----- From: "Andrew Czarn" <ac...@cs...> To: <mik...@li...> Cc: "Simon Huband -- Simon Huband" <hu...@cs...>; <s.h...@ec...>; <sh...@ma...> Sent: Friday, February 20, 2004 10:17 AM Subject: [MiKTeX] question about accessing bibliography database in different directory > to anyone who can assist > > how does one supply the argument to > > \bibliography{} > > when the bibliography database is in a different directory to the > document you are working on. > > for eg, i have tried > > \bibliography{{database}{d:\differentdirectory\}} > > but this does not appear to work (though i believe this > format may work for \includegraphics) > > thank you > > andrew > > Dr AST Czarn > > > > > > ------------------------------------------------------- > SF.Net is sponsored by: Speed Start Your Linux Apps Now. > Build and deploy apps & Web services for Linux with > a free DVD software kit from IBM.
