\placefigure[location=here...] problem
![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/c3c1c5418b46040b36adb64d8a74c286.jpg?s=120&d=mm&r=g)
Hi all, I am generating a quiz, with eight questions, each with text and a figure following it. The output was fine till the fifth question, but then the margin separating the text of each question disappeared and the figure got put on the next page one after the other. Can anyone suggest what I could be doing wrong? Do I need to increase the buffer? how? This is what I have used to place each figure \startplacefigure[location=here,reference=fig:blah][]{} \externalfigure[blah.jpeg][scale=300] \stopplacefigure

Without a proper example it's difficult to give an answer.

You can try the force option: \startplacefigure[location=force,reference=fig:blah] \externalfigure[blah.jpeg][scale=300] \stopplacefigure Wolfgang

I worked, ;-), thanks. Let me ask you another thing, how can I avoid messing up the line spacing by using \sqrt and \frac, the line that follows these has increased line spacing in the pdf output code: Find the normal and shearing stresses on an oblique plane defined by $l=\sqrt{\frac{3}{13}}$, $m=\sqrt{\frac{1}{13}}$, and $n=\sqrt{\frac{9}{13}}$.
