Effect of `label` on caption position in new environment












7














I use a new environment and have tried to refer to it using the label-refcommands. I'm running into the problem that the label command affects the vertical position of the caption.



The MWE is:



documentclass[a4paper]{memoir}
usepackage{lipsum}

%%% caption for new environment
makeatletter
newcommand{mycaption}[1]{%
strictpagecheckmarginpar{setlength{parindent}{1.0em}small
@afterindentfalse@afterheading {textbf{Caption themynewcount:}} #1}%
}
makeatother

%%% new environment
newcounter{mynewcount}[chapter]
renewcommand{themynewcount}{thechapter.arabic{mynewcount}}

newenvironment{mynewenv}[1]{%
refstepcounter{mynewcount}%
vspace{2abovedisplayskip}%
mycaption{#1}%
vspace{-abovedisplayskip}
noindentbegin{minipage}[t]{textwidth}%
}{end{minipage}vspace{belowdisplayskip}}

begin{document}
chapter{Chapter}
lipsum[1]
begin{mynewenv}{Caption}
label{test} % <<< label
lipsum[2]
end{mynewenv}
ref{test} % <<< refer to label
end{document}


Without the label and ref commands, the caption is properly aligned with the top of the contents of the environment:



enter image description here



With them, however, the caption is shifted up:



enter image description here



How can I fix this?

          Warning: since your code uses marginpar it could not be well aligned with the mini page.



          You could change the mynewenv environment definition to have an optional argument to be used within label, as shown below:



          newenvironment{mynewenv}[2]{% <-- here
          refstepcounter{mynewcount}%
          vspace{2abovedisplayskip}%
          mycaption{#2}label{#1}% <-- here
          vspace{-abovedisplayskip}
          noindentbegin{minipage}[t]{textwidth}%
          }{end{minipage}vspace{belowdisplayskip}}


          Then, you simply pass the label as option, like:



          begin{mynewenv}[test]{Caption}
          lipsum[2]
          end{mynewenv}
          As we can see in ref{test}...


          Or without the option (but in this case, some warning could happens if using multiple times):



          begin{mynewenv}{Caption}
          lipsum[2]
          end{mynewenv}

          Easier: Use xparse and NewDocumentEnvironment{mynewenv}{o+m}{... IfValueT{#1}{label{#1}} ... rest as given, for example)}{end{minipage}}

          Actually, the optional argument is the better way, since the label should occur after the mycaption and not in the environment body, in my point of view
