I've recently been using the Edward Tufte inspired style file (the handout option) for my documents and a Gantt chart package. However, if I put \usepackage{gantt} in my preamble it prevents some code that previously worked fine (a set of frameboxes in a figure environment), from working. Is there any way around this issue? I assume it is something to do with the namespace of variables in each package, but I don't know enough latex markup to be able to inspect this.
I'm using TeXshop on a Mac with OSX, and have both .sty files in the folder where I am working. The problem appears to be with this structure:
\framebox(150,150){\includegraphics[width=0.3\linewidth]{image1.pdf}}
where I make a framebox (and place an image in the framebox, though the error occurs without any image in there).
Here is the code that I am using:
\documentclass[justified,marginals=raggedright]{tufte-handout}% justification
%\geometry{showframe}% for debugging purposes -- displays the margins
\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage{gantt}
% Set up the images/graphics package
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{minibox}
\setkeys{Gin}{width=\linewidth,totalheight=\textheight,keepaspectratio}
\graphicspath{{graphics/}}
