534.0. "Fractional figurespace possible in bl8 ?" by GNUVAX::LIBRARIAN (Looking at the big sky) Fri Jun 19 1987 15:03

          This is the SDML code that I used...


<p>
This is text that appears above the figure.
<figure>()
<figure_file>(ln03\figure.plus\.5)
<endfigure>
This is text that appears below the figure.
    
                                              
          ...and this is the error that I got:


$ document testing general ln03

          So, are fractional figurespaces indeed 'fixed' in
          baselevel 8, or am I using incorrect code? I also tried
          specifying the space as 0.5 ... same error.

    I thought I had fixed that in BL8. In any event, is is fixed for
    V1.0.
