Change table to figure tag in User's Guide

This highlights one part that was only part of the old examples - but not stated: the placement of the caption.

Old caption in tables used align="bottom" to indicate that they should be placed beneath the image. That is also part of the examples. However, it is not documented and for figures that instead depend on the order between img and figcaption. I believe that should be made clear if that is the intent; especially since the caption was normally placed before the table-data (and thus has to be moved).

I also noticed that Dymola's internal rendering does not seem to fully support the new variant; which causes a bit of problem for us.

Dymola's internal rendering does not seem to fully support the new variant...

Your are right!

This is fixed in f6f93c1.

As the release of the MSL 4.0.0 is due in March 2020, I guess there is sufficient time to fix this display issue in Dymola. @HansOlsson is this a proper approach?

As the release of the MSL 4.0.0 is due in March 2020

Here's my proposal of the release schedule:

• January 2020 MSL v4.0.0 Alpha
• February 2020 MSL v4.0.0 Beta
• Early March 2020 MSL v4.0.0 RC.1
• 2020-03-25 MSL v4.0.0 Release

@HansOlsson Do you think we shall proceed with this PR?

[beutlich]

I'd prefer to wait with merging this PR after modelica/ModelicaSpecification#2395 is resolved. Thus, it only can be merged after MSL v4.0.0 (which will be based on Modelica v3.4)

Similarily, we have no SVGs in the MSL, but need to wait for modelica/ModelicaSpecification#174.

[christiankral]

OK. I understand.

[beutlich]

Suspending this PR just to avoid accidental merging.
