Float placement analysis
Restrictive placement specifiers like [h] and [H] cause figures to land on the wrong page, drift from their reference, or force large blocks of whitespace.
Quick answer
It inspects each float's placement specifier and the surrounding context, and identifies placements likely to break the layout, tuned to your document type (paper vs thesis vs report). Risky specifiers are rewritten to flexible ones (for example [H] to [t]) for papers, while thesis inline placement is preserved. Never-referenced and far-from-reference figures are flagged.

How detection works

What you get
Risky specifiers are rewritten to flexible ones (for example [H] to [t]) for papers, while thesis inline placement is preserved. Never-referenced and far-from-reference figures are flagged.

Does it move my figures around?+
It changes the placement specifier so LaTeX can place the float well; it does not relocate your figure code within the document.
