    Using version V1.0 (BL8) and the LYNX doctype, the following
    coding produces a figure space of approximately 7 picas between
    rules for the second figure.
    
    <FIGURE>(Pedestal Rear and Side Panel Removal\F6_TRP)
    <FIGURE_ATTRIBUTES>(KEEP)
    <FIGURE_SPACE>(FULL_PAGE\Same as LYNX System Manual Fig. 8-1)
    <ENDFIGURE>
    <FIGURE>(Pedestal Front Panel Removal\F6_FP)
    <FIGURE_SPACE>(FULL_PAGE\Same as LYNX System Manual Fig. 8-3)
    <ENDFIGURE>
    Adding <FIGURE_ATTRIBUTES>(KEEP) as follows, correctly produces
    two full page figure spaces on adjacent pages.
    
    <FIGURE>(Pedestal Rear and Side Panel Removal\F6_TRP)
    <FIGURE_ATTRIBUTES>(KEEP)
    <FIGURE_SPACE>(FULL_PAGE\Same as LYNX System Manual Fig. 8-1)
    <ENDFIGURE>
    <FIGURE>(Pedestal Front Panel Removal\F6_FP)
    <FIGURE_ATTRIBUTES>(KEEP)
    <FIGURE_SPACE>(FULL_PAGE\Same as LYNX System Manual Fig. 8-3)
    <ENDFIGURE>
    Seems like mighty subtle behavior.

    Not just subtle. Pesky. We fixed a bug with similar attributes
    between BL7 and BL8. Will have to revisit this. 
    
    Thanks for finding the workaround!

|     Uh oh.  This one makes me very nervous.  
    
    Is this the same bug that caused TeX's page size to get smaller and
    smaller after a figure?  If so, we'll need to watch out for it, since
    it previously produced a variety of side-effects that were
    difficult-to-diagnose (page footers creeping up and down, jobs aborting
    with undisclosed TeX errors, figures getting the squeeze,...). 
    
    Let us know what you find out.  Thanks.

| 729.4 | No, not that! | CLOSET::ANKLAM | Wed Aug 12 1987 17:17 | 5 | |

    no, this was different. we smacked the creeping page bug; we had
    a large number of files to test that one.
