Captions above make more sense anyway -- tell the reader what you're
going to show them before you show it, not after."
We played all of these "kludge" games and gave up on them. Our users with
trackballs did like the single page layout, either. Ultimately, we changed
our Style Guide to put captions at the top of our figures (and tables). No
one has complained since we made that shift. Honestly, I think it makes
more sense to have the captions at the top of the figure anyway, from a
"linear read" perspective.

Richard
