yes, slow but persistent (hopefully not annoying...)
you can try this:
\OTRSEToutput {\dontcomplain % new, get rid of overfull message (to be sorted out) \doloop {\OTRSETnaturalflush %\OTRSETstartnextpage % no \OTRSETdoflushfloats % actually belongs in \flushsavedfloats (but goes wrong) \OTRSETcheckfreelines \ifsomefreecolumncells \exitloop \fi}% \OTRSETchecksidefloat}
Huraaaaa!!! Great. It works! It works! It works! It works at least for: - full page float: [page|here](\textheight,\makeupwidth) in simple example - full column float: [here](\textheight,\OneColWidth) in simple example - does not change page break and/or float positions in 160 pages 2 or 3 columnsets document with about 330 floats! - and more over: preserves any text in this doc! It does not work for \startcolumns (not columnsets) but - seems to me it is another problem (break one more line in each column that is appropriate to \textheight) - the behaviour is exactly the same with or without the new patch Thank you, Hans, very much! I do not know how to reciprocate with... (you sometimes suggest to buy a beer but I am afraid of your being drunken if everybody who is helped by you buys to you a beer :) Vit
tricky patch so please test extensively! (for the moment put this in your local copy of cont-loc.tex or maybe in your doc)
