EDIT: This post was associated with this one I kind of understood Mr Carlisle's solution, tested it and it seems to work in my case. However, I can't figure out how to properly insert my own graphics instead of the "rules" used for the example.
Whenever I build this snippet:
\begin{figure}[p]
\centering
\write300{float on page \thepage}
\includegraphics[width=10cm, height=7cm]{sycamore.jpeg}
\caption{Sycamore}
\end{figure}
The document is built but won't display the figure at all. I also can't figure out the role of the command "write" here, maybe it has do do with it. I'd be really glad if you could explain it a bit further.
Thanks again, Antoine
The issue I am facing is pretty similar to the ones described here and there. However I couldn't make these solutions work + I'm facing another issue.
I'm writing a thesis in which I use figures. I want pages on the left to be either blank (rare) or to contain the figures referenced in the next page in terms of numbering (It doesn't have to be automatic, I can do the referencing manually since it seems pretty hard to automatize this way).
I've been looking at floats but couldn't make it work properly. Has anyone got a code snippet that could simply force figures to appear on the left and leave the rest of the page blank so that text only fills the right one ?
I hope I didn't misunderstand the way LaTeX pages and positioning work but I'm sure someone has faced this issue before.
Thank you very much for your answers.
