Thank Hans,

I thought something along those lines, but thank you for the explanation.
Indeed, I probably should do it differently.

If the "force" option would not break anything then I would like to try
that, otherwise it is all fine as is.
This is not really critical and I will rather change the float in my
document than create more issues.

Regards,
Adam
