Floats – Floats Appearing in Wrong Places

floatsgraphicslyx

In Lyx I'm using float figures.

I have to put three pictures one after the other, so three different float figures.

When I output a pdf, the floats all appear at the top of three different pages.

Why is this happening?

Floats – Override Tendency to Avoid Filling Entire Page with Floats

If I want to keep a bunch of figures together, I simply use one figure environment:

\begin{figure}
    \includegraphics{foo}
    \caption{Foo}
    \vspace{5mm}
    \includegraphics{bar}
    \caption{Baz}
    \vspace{5mm}
    \includegraphics{bar}
    \caption{Baz}
\end{figure}

It looks a bit strange, but it works. You can have multiple \captions in one figure environment.

Now there is no way Latex can place these three figures on different columns or different pages. You can fine-tune \vspaces to your needs.
