The \env{wrapfigure} and \env{wraptable} environments interact +properly with the \cmd{\caption} command to produce proper numbering, but +they are not regular floats like \env{figure} and \env{table}, so (beware!) they +may be printed out of sequence with the regular floats. There are four +parameters for \verb+\begin{wrapfigure}+, two optional and two required, plus +the text of the figure, with a caption perhaps: +% +\begin{quote} + \verb+\begin{wrapfigure}[12]{r}[34pt]{5cm}+ \meta{figure} \verb+\end{wrapfigure}+\\ + \begin{tikzpicture} + \node (number) at (0mm, 0mm) {\oarg{number of narrow lines}}; + \node (placement) at (36mm, 0mm) {\marg{placement}}; + \node (overhang) at (60mm, 0mm) {\oarg{overhang}}; + \node (width) at (81mm, 0mm) {\marg{width}}; + \begin{scope}[->] + \draw (number) -- (16mm, 17mm); + \draw (placement) -- (24mm, 17mm); + \draw (overhang) -- (35mm, 17mm); + \draw (width) -- (47mm, 17mm); + \end{scope} + \end{tikzpicture} +\end{quote} + + +Some idiosyncrasies: +% +\begin{itemize} +\item You must not specify a \env{wrapfigure} in any type of list environment or + or immediately before or immediately after one. It is OK to follow + a list if there is a blank line (\cs{par}) in between. + +\item If you put a \env{wrapfigure} in a \env{parbox} or a \env{minipage}, or any other type + of grouping, the text wrapping should end before the group does. + +\item It does work in two-column format, but are your figures that small? + +\item It may be out of sequence with regular floats. + +\item The hlines that may be printed above and below floats are ignored; + you must insert them manually if desired. + +\item \cmd{\linewidth} is now adjusted within the wrapped text, but since it + can only be set for whole paragraphs at a time, it will persist with + the wrong value after the wrapping, until the paragraph is finished. +\end{itemize} + +New wrapping environments may be added when new float types are defined +(using \cls{memoir.cls}, \pkg{float.sty}, or \pkg{ccaption.sty}). Any wrapping environment, +\env{wrapfigure}, \env{wraptable}, or something else may be invoked using the +\env{wrapfloat} environment, as in \verb+\begin{wrapfloat}{figure}{O}{5cm}+. + +To use \pkg{float.sty} properly, load package \pkg{float} before \pkg{wrapfig}, +and declare any new float types after loading both. Likewise for +\pkg{ccaption.sty} and \cmd{\newfloatlist} and \pkg{memoir.cls} and its \cmd{\newfloat}. + + +\section{Placement and Floating} + +Parameter \verb+#2+ (required) is the figure placement code, but the valid +codes are different from regular figures. They come in pairs: an +uppercase version which allows the figure to float, and a lowercase +version that puts the figure ``exactly here''. +% +\begin{quote} + \begin{tabular}{*{2}{>{\ttfamily}l}!{--}l} + r & R & the right side of the text \\ + l & L & the left side of the text \\ + i & I & the inside edge--near the binding (if \opt{[twoside]} document) \\ + o & O & the outside edge--far from the binding + \end{tabular} +\end{quote} +% +You should specify one code only, not a list. The figure or table must +be on one side or the other; it cannot be in the middle with text on +both sides. The \texttt{i} and \texttt{o} options refer to the inside and outside of +the whole page, not individual columns. + +The ability to float is somewhat restricted, and you will get best results +by giving exact manual placement, but floating is more convenient while +revising the document. Any changes to the formatting can ruin your manual +positioning so you should adjust the placement just before printing a +final copy. Here are some tips for good placement: +% +\begin{itemize} +\item The environment should be placed so as to not run over a page break. + +\item The environment must not be placed in special places like lists. + +\item For esthetic reasons, only plain text should wrap around the figure. + Section titles and big equations look bad; lists are bad if the figure + is on the left. (All these function properly, they just don't look + very good.) Small equations look fine. + +\item It is convenient to begin the environment between paragraphs, but if + you want placement in the middle of a paragraph, you must put the + environment between two words where there is a natural line break. +\end{itemize} + +When floating, \LaTeX\ tries to apply these rules. More specifically, +a floated wrapping environment will only begin\dots +% +\begin{itemize} +\item at the beginning of a paragraph, + +\item when there is enough room on the page, or it is possible to go on + the next page, + +\item if the `paragraph' is not in a section title or a list, + +\item if the paragraph is not wrapping around another figure, + +\item in the main text (not in a \env{minipage} etc.) +\end{itemize} + +It is possible that a non-floating \env{wrapfigure} will be forced to float +when an earlier one is still being processed. A warning will be written +in that case. You can have more information about the floating process +written to the log file by specifying \verb+\usepackage[verbose]{wrapfig}+. + +If there is a lot of flexibility on a page, a floating \env{wrapfigure} may +be placed badly; you must turn to manual placement. A rare problem is +that floats and footnotes specified within the wrapping text can also +cause poor placement and bad formatting. + + +\section{Sizing and optional overhang} + +Parameter \verb+#4+ (the second required parameter) is the width of the figure +or table. Given the way that \LaTeX\ puts just about everything into boxes +with the current line-width, the width parameter will take precedence over +whatever natural width the figure has. In particular, the caption is always +typeset with the specified width. If the figure is wider than the space +allotted, you will get an ``overfull box'' warning. + +However, if you specify a width of \emph{zero} (\texttt{0pt}), the actual width of +the figure will determine the wrapping width. A following \cmd{\caption} +should have the same width as the figure, but it might fail badly; it +is safer to specify a width when you use a caption. + +\LaTeX\ will wrap surrounding text around the figure, leaving a gap of +\cmd{\intextsep} at the top and bottom, and \cmd{\columsep} at the side, by +producing a series of shortened text lines beside the figure. The +indentation (shortening) of the text is the figure width plus \cmd{\columnsep} +minus overhang (if any; see below). + +\LaTeX\ calculates the number of short lines needed based on the height +of the figure and the length \cmd{\intextsep}. You can override this guess +by giving the first optional argument (parameter \verb+#1+) specifying the +number of shortened lines (counting each displayed equation as 3~lines). +This is particularly useful when the surrounding text contains extra +vertical spacing that is not accounted for automatically. + +The second optional parameter (\verb+#3+) tells how much the figure should +hang out into the margin. The default overhang is given by the length +\cmd{\wrapoverhang}, which is \texttt{0pt} normally but can be changed using +\cmd{\setlength}. For example, to have all wrapfigures use the space +reserved for marginal notes, +% +\begin{verbatim} + \setlength{\wrapoverhang}{\marginparwidth} + \addtolength{\wrapoverhang}{\marginparsep} +\end{verbatim} + +When you do specify the overhang explicitly for a particular figure, you +can use a special unit called \cmd{\width} meaning the width of the figure. +For example, \verb+[0.5\width]+ makes the center of the figure sit on the +edge of the text, and \verb+[\width]+ puts the figure entirely in the margin +(and the adjacent text is indented by just \cmd{\columnsep}). This \cmd{\width} +is the actual width of the \env{wrapfigure}, which may be greater than the +declared width. + + +\section{Some Random Implementation Notes} + +Unfortunately, \LaTeX's system of setting \cmd{\everypar} and \cs{par} is +unable to coexist peacefully with a wrapping environment, so I was +forced to subvert the \cmd{\@setpar} mechanism and \cmd{\everypar}. (\cmd{\everypar} +is already subverted once by NFSS.) + +When checking the room left on the page, remember that if there is less +than \cmd{\baselineskip} the new paragraph will begin on the next page, even +if there is no page stretch. If non-floating, I force a bad page break +rather than have the figure hang into the bottom margin. + +Here are notes on various variables and some macros; what info they +store and how they are used. +% +\begin{description} +\item[\cmd{\WF@wli}] number-of-wrapped-lines parameter, saved for start of wrapping. + Set globally by \cmd{\WF@wr} (set empty if no optional parameter given). + The floating mechanism ignores this and uses the real size. + +\item[\cmd{\WF@ovh}] margin overhang set globally by \cmd{\WF@rapt}, saved until placing + figure (but not reset). Actually, the setting is very tricky so that + the expected values are used when a figure floats. First, the expression + is saved without evaluation by \cmd{\WF@rapt} (\verb+\begin{wrapfigure}+) because + \cmd{\width} is still unknown. Soon after that, \cmd{\endwrapfigure} executes + \cmd{\WF@ovh} to evaluate the overhang and save the result (so that changes + to \cmd{\wrapoverhang} while this figure is floating won't affect this + figure). Finally, it is used by \cmd{\WF@putfigmaybe} when printing the fig. + +\item[\cmd{\WF@place}] a macro that is used as a number, giving the placement code. + It might start out as \texttt{\textasciigrave I} and later be converted to \texttt{114} (r). + +\item[\cmd{\WF@box}] tested for void at \verb+\begin{wrapfigure}+, to avoid collisions, % \end{wrapfigure} + by \cmd{\everypar} to do floating, and by \cmd{\WF@finale} before resetting + \cmd{\everypar}. Voided globally when used by \cmd{\WF@putfigmaybe} (or by + \cmd{\WF@wr} if an old figure must be dumped prematurely). + +\item[\cs{par}] test if it is \cmd{\@@par} by \verb+\begin{wrapfigure}+ and \cmd{\WF@floathand} % \end{wrapfigure} + to float past special environments. It is set to \cmd{\@par} (\cmd{\WF@mypar}) + by \cmd{\WF@startwrapping}, and restored by an end-group (bad!)\ or by + \cmd{\WF@finale} (good). It is protected from change by redefining + \cmd{\@setpar}. + +\item[\cmd{\parshape}] let to \cmd{\WF@fudgeparshape} by \cmd{\WF@startwrapping}, so lists + will continue wrapping; \cmd{\@@parshape} preserves the real \cmd{\parshape} + command, and it is restored by \cmd{\WF@finale} or \cmd{\@parboxrestore}. + \cmd{\WF@floathand} and \cmd{\WF@wr} test if old wrapping is still in progress + with \verb+\ifx\parshape\WF@fudgeparshape+. The value of \cmd{\@@parshape} is + also tested to float past lists and other wrapping environments. + +\item[\cmd{\hangindent}] tested to float past section titles etc. + +\item[\cmd{\c@WF@wrappedlines}] $\text{the number of shortened lines} + 1$; set globally by + \cmd{\WF@start\-wrapping} and decremented by \cs{par} (\cmd{\WF@mypar}). It is $> 1$ + only when wrapping is incomplete. \cmd{\WF@wraphand}, \cmd{\WF@fudgeparshape}, + and \cmd{\WF@mypar} test the number for calling \cmd{\WF@finale}. It may get + stuck at some high value if \cs{par} is restored by an end-group, (and + wrapping is terminated prematurely) so it is unwise to use this as a + test for wrapping-complete. + +\item[\cmd{\pagetotal}] one of many parameters used to compute floating. When + putting a \env{wrapfigure} in a \env{parbox}, I assign \verb+\let\pagetotal\maxdimen+ + (locally!)\ to signal not-top-of-page and no floating. + +\item[\cmd{\WF@pspars}] the \cmd{\parshape} parameters as \LaTeX\ sets them for lists + (\cmd{\WF@fudgepar\-shape}); when wrapping I test it and use it to modify my + own real params for the paragraph. They are also used when \cmd{\parshape} + is restored after wrapping. + +\item[\cmd{\WF@finale}] is performed by \cs{par} when wrapping should end. However, + that might happen inside a group (a list especially), so the subverted + versions of \cs{par}, \cmd{\parshape} etc. will be reinstated when the group + ends. Thus, they must themselves test $\text{\cmd{\c@WF@wrappedlines}} < 2$ to see + when wrapping is over, and if so, they should just do \cmd{\WF@finale} again. +\end{description} + +These are the tests to see if a floating \env{wrapfigure} will fit at a particular +spot. These tests are performed at the beginning of every paragraph after +the figure, except in lists etc. ($\text{\cmd{\pagegoal}} - \text{\cmd{\pagetotal}}$ is the room +left on the page.) +% +\begin{verbatim} + > + room_left := \pagegoal - \pagetotal + if room_left < 0 then page overfull already: + put figure (on next page) + else + if figure_size > room_left then does not fit + if max(min_stretch, \pagestretch) + extra > room_left + then page can stretch until full: + put figure (at top of next page) + fi + else figure fits: put figure + fi fi + < +\end{verbatim} + +Even if a \env{wrapfigure} is not floating, it will go through the same logic +to generate a \cmd{\pagebreak}, and maybe an underfull page, when the current +page can stretch until full. The \texttt{min\_stretch} depends on whether it is +floating or not: \verb+.5\baselineskip+ (floating) \verb+2\baselineskip+ (not). The +\texttt{extra} is \verb+.5\baselineskip+ in either case. These values can be adjusted. + +There are some other `magic numbers' for floating that aren't really so +special, but you must change them together if you change them at all. +To make floating wrapfigures float less and fit on pages more frequently, +but not change the number of wrapped lines, decrease the \texttt{1.5} in +\verb+\global\advance\WF@size1.5\baselineskip+ and increase the \texttt{1.1} in +\verb+\advance\WF@size1.1\baselineskip+ by the same amount (and vice versa). +To make more (or fewer) wrapped lines for the same size figure, without +changing the floating, change \texttt{1.1} in \verb+\advance\WF@size1.1\baselineskip+ +unilaterally. + +\end{document} |
